web browser and our WorldData service.

WorldData and Web Display
APRS World offers our World Data service for our customers (see pricing above). Using an optional internet gateway module, our products can send live data
to our hosted data service. Using your web browser you can view live and historical performance data and graphs. This allows your customer to see how their system is performing and allows you to
troubleshoot the system without getting in your truck.

Important: the PS2Tap requires APRS World's RF Modem to Ethernet Gateway, 802.15.4 XBee-Pro. For customers who already have this modem for other APRS World products,
the PS2Tap is available separately. For new installations, please choose the PS2Tap with Ethernet Gateway package.
Installation
Installation of the PS2Tap in the PowerSyncII inverter is quick and easy. Most installations take 15 minutes or less.
There are three basic steps:
- Mount the PS2Tap inside the inverter. This requires three holes be drilled in the lower right side of the inverter. We supply a pilot drill bit and a drilling template. You will
need a 3/4" hole saw or 1/2" conduit knockout punch. We even send a magnet to trap metal chips from harming your inverter. Once the holes are drilled, the PS2Tap is secured
using two small screws.
- Connect the PS2Tap to the inverter. Just unplug a low voltage cable from the front panel display and plug it into the PS2Tap. Then run the new supplied cable from the PS2Tap to the display.
- Plug our gateway into your Internet connection. With the supplied antennas, the gateway can be up to 100 meters / 300 feet from the inverter. With optional gain antennas, distances of up
to 1 mile can be bridged. This flexibility allows the inverter to be in an out building and the wireless gateway to be inside near your Internet connection.
