The solar simulator publishes the PV system power (PV output), PV system information, and PV system status. The solar simulator subscribes to control topics for connection and output (curtailment). There is also a subscription to a solar irradiance topic used for simulation.
- Meas_NodePower
- Info_Resource
- Status_Device
- Control_Power: This is only used to create a base value for its own power level
- Control_Irradiance: Used to provide an irradiance instance if no other device is doing so.
- Control_Power
- Control_Device
- Control_Irradiance: Wholly for simulation. In a real system this is environmentally dependent.
