The maximum allowable input short circuit current limit of the PV array for each MPPT
input channel is 22Adc.
Array equipment grounding must be installed per the requirements of the NEC and is
the responsibility of the installer. The transformerless design requires that the PV array
to be oating with respect to ground per NEC 690.35.
Power-One DOES NOT provide AC output overcurrent protection; it is the
responsibility of the end user to provide protection for the AC output circuit.
The AC grid wiring is connected through the inverter switchbox. Run an
approved raceway between inverter and external AC disconnect switch.
Make conduit entry through openings B or E shown in Figure 1. Connect
AC wiring to switch box terminal block J and the main AC ground cable to
switchbox terminal block K.
Table 1, (which is also found on a label in the switchbox), shows AC wiring
connections according to the AC grid type; connect wiring to the numbered
terminals based on selected grid type.
Size conductors per NEC Article 310; Use 90°C copper wire only.
Terminal block accommodates wire size range of 14-4 AWG.
Table 1: Grid standard
The default 240V-SPLIT-PHASE connection requires the grid Neutral to be connected
for proper operation.
Before connecting the inverter to the grid, the grid type must be selected if it diers
from the default 240V-SPLIT-PHASE setting. See Section 9 for instructions to change
the default.
* IMPORTANT: If several AURORA inverters are installed to a three-phase AC GRID,
always distribute the inverters between the phases in order to reduce power
imbalance between the phases. Always refer to the local standards.

Wiring for the RS-485 communication system and hardwired control options are routed through the
switchbox (openings D of Figure 1) and into the main inverter chassis for termination. Alarm and
monitoring connections are shown as items Q and R in Figure 6. If the terminal blocks are used, the
signal RTN, +T/R and –T/R have to be cabled.
RS-485 cable must be NRTL certied and provided
with additional protection by means of a non-
metallic tubing. Use Belden #3106A (or eq.) cable for
the RS-485 signals (RTN, ±T/R); ensure the ±T/R pair is
connected through the cable twisted pair. Strip 1/4”
insulation from all wires and connect to terminal block
as indicated in Figure 7.
Figure 7: Signal wiring terminal block
Systems with multiple inverters require the RS-485 cable to be daisy chained inverter-to-inverter and
there will be up to two RS-485 cables entering the inverter.
If a daisy chain connection is required for AFD installed inverters (-A models) use standard
multiconductor RS-485 cable and connect the three RS-485 leads (-RTN, +T/R, -T/R) USING ONLY
THE TERMINAL BLOCK. Do not use RJ45 connectors with AFD installations.
Locate Switch S2 on the inverter
board (Figure 6, label T). Conrm
the switch is up in the OFF position
for every inverter in the chain
except for the last inverter, which
must be turned ON.
Last inverter in Daisy Chain needs to have the switch S2 pushed
down into the ON position (Termination resistor active).
The default position of the S2 switch in the OFF position.
Inverter default address is 2.
If multiple inverters are connected in a daisy chain, each unit must be assigned a dierent RS-485
address. Refer to section 9 for instructions to assign addresses using the display menu.
The sum total length for all the RS-485 lines in the system must be less than 1000m (~1100 yards).
Communications cabling must not be combined into the AC or DC power conduits; run these in a
separate conduit.
Using the mounting bracket as a template, locate and
mark the desired mounting location.
Mount bracket to wall using four screws (provided)
through holes B. Two additional screws can be used in
position A if necessary.
Orient the bracket so the hooks C face out and up.
Hang the inverter on the bracket by lifting up
and over the mounting plate, engaging the
brackets C-D and E-F on the back.
Secure chassis bottom using machine screw
and washer (provided) through center bottom
hole H, engaging threaded insert in the bracket
G. Add additional screws as necessary through
bottom ange securing to mounting surface.
All -S and -A models have an integrated DC disconnect switch rated 600V/25A per contact. Maximum
array DC voltage input to each MPPT circuit is 600 Vdc under any condition.
The switch disconnects the DC current from the PV panels in the “OFF” position. The
inverter will stop producing power, but DOES NOT disconnect the AC from the grid.

Pressing the ESC key gives access to three main menus: Statistics - Settings - Info.
Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll between the menus and press ENTER to make a selection. To return
to the preceding menu, press the ESC key.
The Statistics, Settings and Info menus can be accessed with just the array connected. Some parameters
(e.g. current, voltage, power, partial energy, lifetime energy etc.) are available only after grid connection.
Based on individual installations, the following parameters may need to be congured
prior to initial grid connection:
Based on individual installations, the following parameters may need to be congured prior to initial
grid connection:
• The RS-485 bus address for daisy chain (Section 9),
• AC grid type if dierent from default (Section 9),
• Adjustments to default frequency and disconnection time (Section 10).
Complete descriptions of the data available on the display menus can be found in the full manual on the
CD accompanying this guide or on the Power-One website.
For –A models only, an autotest circuit is included in the module design of Power-One’s DC ARC FAULT
DETECTOR and INTERRUPTOR (AFDI) solution. The AFDI performs a self-test when the system is started,
(ie every morning when sunlight is sucient for grid connection). The inverter display shows the results
of the self-test as described in section 11.
During normal operation, (while the inverter in connected to the grid), the input current is continually
measured and analyzed. If a DC arc fault is detected, the inverter is disconnected from the AC grid and
the error message ARC FAULT E050” will be shown on the inverter display.
Press and hold the ESC key for three seconds to clear the error which will start the self-test. If self-test
results are OK (section 11), the inverter will re-connect to the AC grid. If the DC arc fault is still present,
the self test will result in error message AF Self Test E053”. Refer to the Troubleshooting section in the
full technical manual for possible solutions to clear the error.
When the AFD protection trips continously an electrical arcing has taken place. In this
case Power-One recommends a complete and accurate check of DC connections.
The AF self test can be manually started anytime using the disconnect procedure below:
1. Turn o the inverter (switching o both DC and AC switches) and,
2. Turn on both the DC and AC switches waiting for display communication of self-test result.
Once the inverter has been wired and connected to the grid, use the following procedures to disconnect:
1. Disconnect from the AC Grid by turning OFF the external AC switch or turning OFF the Over
Current Protection Device (circuit breaker).
2. Disconnect the inverter from the PV array by turning OFF the external DC disconnect switch.
NOTE: When possible, turn o the AC switch rst, however, there is no specic order for turning o
the two switches.
WARNING: After shutdown, wait at least 10 minutes before removing guards or covers
in order to allow devices inside the unit to cool and any electrostatic charges and
parasitic voltages to be discharged.
When removing the inverter covers, always check voltage levels at the DC input
terminals and the AC output cables to ensure no hazardous voltages are present.
When multiple units have been connected in a daisy chain, the individual address will need to be
assigned prior to grid connection using the display menu. The grid default type, 240V Split Phase, can
also be changed prior to grid connection using the display menu.
With only the array connected, set the inverters DC disconnect switch to ON. GREEN
POWER LED will ash and YELLOW ALARM LED will be steady. The LCD will read “Missing
Grid”. Press ESC to open the menus. Use the DOWN key to scroll to Settings, and press
ENTER.
The Settings menu requires an access password.
Upon selecting SETTINGS the password screen will display; the default
password is 0000.
Pressing ENTER four times loads four zeroes on the display and opens
the submenu (Figure 9).
The LCD has two visible text lines and the UP and DOWN control
keys are used to scroll through the menu items. An arrow on the left
side of the display highlights the current selection. Move the arrow
UP or DOWN to the desired selection and press ENTER to access the
associated submenu (Figure 9). To return to the preceding menu, press
the ESC key.
Address and Set Vgrid are described below for use in installation.
Complete descriptions of the submenus can be found in the full

An inverter not in direct sunlight will output its maximum rated power up to at least 40C (almost 120F).
Power reduction and temperature at which it occurs depend on many operating parameters other than
ambient temperature, such as input voltage, grid voltage, and power available from the photovoltaic
modules. The inverter can decrease power output during certain periods of the day according to these
parameters.
PVI-5000-OUTD-US
Operating ambient temperature at full power (without derating): -25 °C...+ 60 °C
PVI-6000-OUTD-US
Operating ambient temperature at full power (without derating): -25 °C...+ 60 °C
To adjust frequency and disconnect times to meet local utility requirements, modications are made
using the Aurora Manager-TL software. The software, with instructions to download and install on a
PC, can be found on the CD included with this inverter. If an internet connection is available, check the
product page at www.power-one.com/renewable-energy to download the most recent version of the
software.
Prior to connecting to the grid, with the inverter’s DC disconnect switch set to ON, a computer, with
Aurora Manager-TL software installed, should be connected to the inverter via an RS-485-USB adapter
(not included). The USB driver les and instructions for installation can be found on the CD included
with the inverter or Power-One website. PC-inverter connection cable required is standard USB 2.0 cable,
terminals type A and B.
Launch the application from the computer desktop icon. At Select Mode screen, enter the address
assigned a single inverter and press Start. For multiple inverters press Scan to search All Inverters.
Grid parameters will be displayed. Default settings cause automatic disconnection from the grid in
160ms when line frequency is outside the range of 59.3 Hz < f < 60.5 Hz. Press the Write button to
change values of desired parameters to those required by the local utility.
After frequency and disconnect time values have been adjusted, turn DC power OFF and
ON to save new data. Changes to parameters must be made to meet the requirements of
the local utility. Entry of improper values could cause inverter to shut down.
