can serve as the central controller for
mapping and tracking the Sun in solar power
plants, and sending data back and forth
between the tracker and control center�
The W321 and UC-7112 embedded
computers can be used as front-end
controllers that connect to the PV inverter,
AI and counter input module, and power
meter� They can also be used for remote
monitoring, data acquisition, data logging,
and protocol conversion�
