Design and Implementation of an Evolutive Database of Photovoltaic Panels Measurements using LabVIEW NXG and SystemLink

This paper presents and discusses the design and the implementation of a Database of PV panels voltage and current measurements starting from measurements acquired using National Instrument (NI) devices. The application, named Database of PV Panels (DPVP), is implemented using a connection between LabVIEW NXG and SystemLink. It could be used according to Online mode or Local mode. In this paper, the discussion will focus on the Online mode, which includes five functionalities. Theses functionalities were tested and validated using an experimental setup that includes 85Wc PV panels.
