<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable control of connectivity of the power generator modules in a string. <P>SOLUTION: A power generator module can include a current sense circuit that monitors for the presence of a communication signal. The power generator module can monitor for the presence of a remotely generated control signal over a power line that is used by the respective power generator module to convey power to an external load. If the control signal is present on the power line, as generated by a remote resource, a control circuit in the respective power generator module activates a switch to an ON state such that respective activated power generator module is connected in series with the other activated power generator modules. If no keep-alive signal is detected within a timeout period, a controller deactivates the respective power generator module. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
