Fronius International and Obvius Holdings have formed a strategic partnership for the development of a monitoring solution that provides “plug-and-play integration.” Fronius’ IG Plus and CL inverters are now supported by Obvius’ AcquiSuite, AcquiSuite EMB and AcquiLite EMB.

The companies noted that now, when a Fronius inverter is ordered with a Fronius Com Card and USB converter, the Obvius data acquisition server will provide inverter-direct communications, Modbus TCP output and instant integration with all third party software monitoring providers.
