Calculating the data volume
General
When operating the Fronius Datamanager, data is generated and needs to be transmitted
online.
In order to select a suitable internet connection it is necessary to calculate the data volume.
The following data volume calculation provides an overview of the amount of data gener-
ated when operating Fronius Datamanager.
Firmware ver-
The data volume calculation is based on Fronius Datamanager Firmware versions V 2.3.x-
sions for calculat-
x and lower.
ing the data
volume
Higher firmware versions can cause a higher data volume due to their increased functional
range.
Calculating data
The data volume calculation depends on which Fronius Datamanager functions are acti-
volumes
vated.

IMPORTANT! Since the values listed in the table are "rough data" for Fronius Dataman-
ager and the provider's bill may show discrepancies as a result of the various different
ways of calculating the transfer volume, the total values should be increased by 10-20%.
If the functions have been deactivated, no data volume is generated.
A certain data volume is also required to update the Fronius Datamanager firmware. This
data volume depends on the size of the relevant update package and cannot therefore be
taken into account for any advance calculation of the data volume.
