[0028] Hereinafter technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure are described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings to clarify objectives, technical 5 solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Any other embodiments obtained based on the embodiments of the present disclosure by those skilled in the art without any creative effort fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0029] In conventional technology, it is necessary to scan a serial-number (SN) code of a 10 communication device in a power station when establishing the power station. The communication device uploads onto a cloud platform data of structures and operation of devices, such as an inverter, a battery, a charging pile, and an electric meter, which are coupled to the communication device. After obtaining the device identifier of the communication device, the cloud platform obtains information and data of each device in the power station via the 15 communication device, and thereby establishes the monitoring system for the power station on the cloud platform. There are possibilities that the device identifier of the communication device is occluded, damaged, or lost during on-site installation at the power station. In such case, the device identifier of the communication device cannot be obtained on-site at the power station, and hence the monitoring system cannot be established on the cloud platform. It is 20 necessary to replace the communication device to solve the problem, which increases costs of the power station and reduces the user’s experience.

[0030] Herein a system for monitoring a power station and a method for establishing the system for monitoring the power station are provided. The techniques are applicable to a system for monitoring a power station that is built or to be built. 25

[0031] A system for monitoring a power station is first illustrated. Reference is made to FIG. 1.

The system server is configured to obtain a first request for establishing a power station, obtain an identifier of a target power device from the request, generate an identifier of a target power station in which the target power device is 30 located, and associate the identifier of the target power station with the identifier of the target power device. 2025201410   27 Feb 2025

[0032] A first communication device among the communication device(s) is configured to upload device information to the system server. The device information comprises at least: an identifier of the first communication device, and an identifier of a power device coupled to the first communication device. 5

[0033] The system server is further configured to: in response to determining that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, associate the identifier of the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station, and associate the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Hence, a system for monitoring the target power station is obtained 10 (or updated).

[0034] The foregoing target power electric device may be, for example, an inverter device in the power station. The device identifier may include an SN code and may be configured to identify a corresponding device. The identifier of the target power station is an identification code (e.g., ID code) of the target power station and is configured to identify the target power 15 station. The first request is configured to request the system server to initiate establishment of the target power station. The first request may be generated and transmitted to the system server after a terminal device obtains the identifier of the target power device.

The intelligent gateway is configured to intelligently respond to communication commands, support various networking modes and installation methods, and adapts to various environments with 25 high protection levels. The power device coupled to the first communication device may be directly connected to the communication device. For example, an inverter is directly connected to the first communication device via physical wiring or cables. The power electric device coupled to the first communication device may alternatively be indirectly connected to the first communication device. For example, another power device is directly connected via 30 physical wiring or cables to a power electric device directly connected to the first communication device. 2025201410   27 Feb 2025

[0035] Herein the system for monitoring the power station comprises the system server, the communication device(s), and the power device(s).

The system server allocates a power station to the target 5 power device, that is, generate the identifier of the target power station in which the target power device is located. The system server further establishes an association between the identifier of the target power station and the identifier of the target power device.

[0036] The first communication device is configured to upload the device information to the system server. Before the uploading, the first communication device may determine which 10 power device(s) are coupled to itself, obtain information such as identifier(s) and data of the power device(s), and then use the identifier(s), the data, and the identifier of the first communication device to generate the device information. Then, the first communication device transmits the device information to the system server via message(s). The device information comprises at least: the identifier of the first communication device, and the 15 identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device. For example, the device information comprises an SN code of the first communication device and an SN code of the power device coupled to the first communication device.

Thereby, a monitoring system for the target power station is obtained (or updated), that is, the first communication device and the power device coupled to the first communication device can be monitored as a 25 part of the first target power station. In such process, the system server searches whether the device information sent by the first communication device comprises the identifier of the target power device. In a case that the identifier of the target power device is comprised, the identifier of the power device, which corresponds to the identifier of the first communication device in the device information, is further obtained, and the corresponding identifier is the 30 identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device. The identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device are both associated with the identifier of the target power station to 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 obtain or update the monitoring system for the target power station. Device(s) associated with the identifier of the target power station can thereby be monitored and maintained through the monitoring system for the target power station.

[0038] The system comprises the system server, the communication device(s), and the power 5 device(s). The system server is configured to: obtain the first request for establishing the target power station; obtain, from the first request, the identifier of the target power device; generate the identifier of the target power station in which the target power device is located; and associate the identifier of the target power station with the identifier of the target power device. The first communication device is configured to upload the first device information 10 to the system server, where the first device information comprises at least the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device. The system server is further configured to: in response to determining that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, associate the identifier of the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station, and 15 associate the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, the monitoring system for the target power station is obtained or updated.

[0039] Herein the system server obtains the identifier of the target power device from the first request for establishing the power station, generates the identifier of the target power station in 20 which the target power device is located, and associate the identifier of the target power device with the identifier of the target power station. When determining that the device information uploaded by the communication device comprises the identifier of the target power device, the system server may associate the identifier of the communication device with the identifier of the target power station and may associate the identifier of the power device coupled to the 25 communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, the system for monitoring the target power station is implemented. The target power device, the first communication device, and the power device coupled to the first communication device, which are associated with the target power station may be monitored and maintained accordingly. In the above solution, the system for monitoring the power station may be established without on- 30 site acquisition of the identifier of the communication device at the power station. Hence, the costs of the power station may be reduced. 2025201410   27 Feb 2025

[0040] In an embodiment, the system further comprises a terminal device in communication connection with the system server. The terminal device is configured to: obtain the identifier of the target power device through scanning a device code of the target power device or through an identifier inputting control; and upload, to the system server, the first request comprising the 5 identifier of the target power device.

[0041] The terminal device may be communicatively coupled to the system server. The terminal device may be a mobile smart device, such as a mobile phone or a tablet. The system for monitoring the power station may further comprise the terminal device, and the terminal 10 device may obtain the identifier of the target power device through scanning the device code of the target power device or through the identifier inputting control.

[0042] In practice, the terminal device obtains the identifier of the target power device through the scanning or the inputting of the device code of the target power device. Then, the terminal device sends the first request to the system server, and the first request comprises the 15 identifier of the target power device. After receiving the first request uploaded by the terminal device, the system server allocates (an identifier of) the target power station to the target power device and associates the identifier of the target power device in the first request with the identifier of the target power station.

[0043] In an embodiment, the first communication device is further configured to: upload 20 message(s) to the system server.

[0046] In other words, the first communication device may transmit the query message to the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device to instruct the power device to send its identifier and data. Then, the first communication device receives the identifier and the data returned by the power device. For example, the first communication device may send the 15 query message actively to the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device and record (e.g., store) the received identifier and data of the power device locally. Afterwards, the identifier and the data of the power device may be transmitted to the system server in messages at predetermined moment(s).

[0052] The accessory device directly coupled to the first communication device may refer to the accessory device directly connected to the first communication device via physical wires or lines. The accessory device indirectly coupled to the first communication device may refer to the accessory device indirectly connected to the first communication device via physical wires or lines. For example, the accessory device may be physically connected to a power device 20 that is directly connected to the first communication device.

[0053] In other words, the first communication device may upload the third message to the system server, and the third message comprises the identifier of the first communication device, the identifier of the accessory device coupled to the first communication device, and the data of the accessory device. For example, the third message comprises the identifier of the first 25 communication device, the SN code of a battery indirectly coupled to the first communication device, and data of the battery, such as remaining energy and temperature of the battery. The system server may receive the third message to obtain the identifier of the first communication device, the identifier of the accessory device, and the data of the accessory device.

[0054] In an embodiment, the system server is configured to: obtain the identifier of the first 30 communication device from the device information; and search the device information for the identifier of the target power device, in response to an identifier of no power station being 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 associated with the identifier of the first communication device.

[0055] In other words, the system server may obtain the identifier of the first communication device from the device information and query whether a power station (e.g., an identifier of the power station) has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device. In a 5 case that no power station has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device, the system server would search one or more pieces of the device information, which are sent by the first communication device, for the identifier of the target power device. In a case that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, the system server would associate both the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the 10 power device coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, the monitoring system for the target power station is obtained or updated.

[0056] In an embodiment, the system server is configured to: associate the identifier of the first communication device with an identifier of a first power station, and associate the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of the first 15 power station, in response to the identifier of the first power station being associated with the identifier of the first communication device.

[0057] In other words, in a case that the first power station has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device, the system server may associate both the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first 20 communication device with the identifier of the first power station.

[0058] In an embodiment, the system server is further configured to: obtain, from the device information, an identifier of another power device that is coupled to the first communication device; and associate the identifier of the other power device with the identifier of the first target power station. An identifier of each of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication 25 device is indicated in the device information.

[0059] In other words, the system server may obtain the identifier(s) of the power device(s) that correspond to the identifier of first communication device, i.e., that are coupled to the first communication device, from the device information that is uploaded by the first communication device. Then, the identifier(s) of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication 30 device are associated with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, the monitoring system for the target power station can serve as a means of monitoring and maintaining the 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 target power device, the first communication device, and the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device.

[0060] In an embodiment, the system server is configured to: obtain a second request for establishing a power station; obtain an identifier of a second communication device from the 5 second request; generate an identifier of a second power station in which the second communication device is located; and associate the identifier of the second power station with the identifier of the second communication device. The second communication device is configured to upload device information to the system server, where the device information comprises at least: the identifier of the second communication device and an identifier of a 10 power device coupled to the second communication device. The system server is further configured to associate the identifier of power device coupled to the second communication device with the identifier of the second power station. Thereby, a monitoring system for the second power station is obtained (or updated), and the second communication device and / or the power device coupled to the second communication device may be monitored as a part of the 15 second power station.

[0061] In other words, the system server may obtain the identifier of the second communication device. After receiving the second request, the system server obtains the identifier of the second communication device from the second request and allocates (an identifier of) the second power station (here "second" is for distinguishing such power station 20 from the foregoing target power station, and the second power station may also be called a target power station) to the second communication device. The system server generates the identifier of the second power station in which the second communication device is located, and then associates the identifier of the second power station with the identifier of the second communication device. 25

[0062] The second communication device in the communication device may further upload its device information to the system server, and the device information at least comprises the identifier of the second communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the second communication device. For example, the device information comprises the SN code of the second communication device and the SN code of the power device coupled to the 30 second communication device.

[0063] After receiving the device information, the system server may associate the identifier 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 of the power device coupled to the second communication device with the identifier of the second power station to obtain or update the monitoring system for the second power station. Thereby, the second communication device and the power device coupled to the second communication device may be monitored through such monitoring system. 5

[0064] Reference is made to FIG. 2, which shows a method for establishing a system for monitoring the power station. The method is applicable to a system server in any foregoing system for monitoring the power station, for example, to a server of a cloud platform. The method comprises steps S202 to S206.

[0065] In step S202, a first request for establishing a power station is obtained, an identifier 10 of a target power device is obtained from the first request, an identifier of a target power station in which the target power device is located is generated, and the identifier of the target power station is associated with the identifier of the target power device.

[0066] The device identifier may include an SN code and may be configured to identify a corresponding device. The identifier of the target power station is an identification code (e.g., 15 ID code) of the target power station and is configured to identify the target power station. The first request is configured to request the system server to initiate establishment of the target power station. The first request may be generated and transmitted to the system server after a terminal device obtains the identifier of the target power device. The first request comprises the identifier of the target power device. The target power device concerned in the first request 20 may include an inverter or another power device.

[0067] After obtaining the first request for establishing a power station, the system server obtains the identifier of the target power device from the first request and allocates a power station to the target power device, that is, generates the identifier of the target power station in which the target power device is located. The system server further establishes an association 25 between the identifier of the target power station and the identifier of the target power device.

[0068] In step S204, device information uploaded by the first communication device is obtained. The device information comprises at least: an identifier of the first communication device, and an identifier of a power device coupled to the first communication device.

[0069] The first communication device may transmit information and data of the power 30 electric device, which is coupled to the first communication device, to the system server. The 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 first communication device may include, for example, a smart dongle. The power device coupled to the first communication device may be directly connected to the communication device. For example, an inverter is directly connected to the first communication device via physical wiring or cables. The power electric device coupled to the first communication 5 device may alternatively be indirectly connected to the first communication device. For example, another power device is directly connected via physical wiring or cables to a power electric device directly connected to the first communication device.

[0070] Herein the first communication device may determine in advance power device(s) coupled to it and obtain information such as identifier(s) and data of the power device(s). 10 Then, the first communication device generates the device information through referring to its identifier and sends the device information to the system server in a form of message(s). The system server may obtain the device information through the message(s) uploaded by the first communication device. The device information uploaded by the first communication device at least comprises the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power 15 device coupled to the first communication device, for example, comprises the SN code of the first communication device and the SN code of the power device coupled to the first communication device.

[0071] In one embodiment, the first communication device may upload multiple messages, and the obtained device information comprises the identifier and the data of the first 20 communication device, the identifier(s) and data of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device, and identifier(s) and data of the accessory device(s) coupled to the communication device. The accessory device may be directly or indirectly coupled to the first communication device through physical connection, and may be a battery, a charging pile, an electric meter, and the like. The data of the accessory device may refer to information on 25 energy storage, power, temperature, or the like.

[0072] In step S206, in response to determining that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, the identifier of the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the target power station, and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the target power 30 station. Hence, a system for monitoring the target power station is obtained (or updated).

[0073] The system server may search the device information sent by the first communication 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 device for the identifier of the target power device. In a case that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, it indicates that the target power device is not only a power device located in the target power station but also a power device coupled to the first communication device. In such case, the system server may attribute the first 5 communication device to the target power station, that is, determine that the first communication device is a communication device in the target power station. That is, the system server would obtain the identifier(s) of the power device(s) corresponding to the identifier of the first communication device from the device information, and associate both the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier(s) of the power device(s) coupled 10 to the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Hence, the first communication device and the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device are determined to belong to the target power station, and they participate in the monitoring system for the target power station together with the target power device and the system server. Device(s) associated with the identifier of the target power station can be monitored and 15 maintained through the monitoring system for the target power station.

[0074] In the foregoing, the first request for establishing a power station is obtained, the identifier of the target power device is obtained from the first request, the identifier of the target power station in which the target power device is located is generated, and the identifier of the target power station is associated with the identifier of the target power device. The device 20 information uploaded by the first communication device is obtained, and the device information comprises at least the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device. When determining that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, the identifier of the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the target power station, and the 25 identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, a monitoring system of the target power station is obtained or updated.

[0075] Herein the system server obtains the identifier of the target power device from the request for establishing the power station, generates the identifier of the target power station in 30 which the target power device is located, and associates the identifier of the target power device with the identifier of the target power station. When determining that the device information uploaded by the communication device comprises the identifier of the target power device, the 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 system server may associate the identifier of the communication device with the identifier of the target power station and may associate the identifier of the power device coupled to the communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Thereby, the system for monitoring the target power station is implemented. The target power device, the first 5 communication device, and the power device coupled to the first communication device, which are associated with the target power station, may be monitored and maintained accordingly. In the above solution, the system for monitoring the power station may be established without on-site acquisition of the identifier of the communication device at the power station. Hence, the costs of the power station may be reduced. 10

[0076] In an embodiment, the system server is in communication connection with a terminal device. The system server may receive the first request that is uploaded by the terminal device, and the first request comprises the identifier of the target power device. The terminal device may obtain the identifier of the target power device through scanning a device code of the target power device, or the device code of the target power device may be inputted into the terminal 15 device through an identifier inputting control.

[0077] The terminal device may be communicatively coupled to the system server. The terminal device may be a mobile smart device, such as a mobile phone or a tablet. The system for monitoring the power station may further comprise the terminal device, and the terminal device may obtain the identifier of the target power device through scanning the device code of 20 the target power device or through the identifier inputting control.

[0078] In practice, the terminal device obtains the identifier of the target power device through the scanning or the inputting of the device code of the target power device. Then, the terminal device sends the first request to the system server, and the first request comprises the identifier of the target power device. After receiving the first request uploaded by the terminal 25 device, the system server allocates (an identifier of) the target power station to the target power device and associates the identifier of the target power device in the first request with the identifier of the target power station.

[0079] Hereinafter provided are some embodiments concerning a manner of obtaining the device information uploaded by the first communication device. 30

[0080] In an embodiment, message(s) uploaded by the first communication device are obtained. The message(s) may comprise: the identifier of the first communication device, data 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 of the first communication device, the identifier(s) of power device(s) coupled to the first communication device, and data of the power device(s).

[0081] In other words, the first communication device may upload one or more messages to the system server, and the system server is further configured to obtain the one or more 5 messages uploaded by the first communication device to obtain corresponding device information from the messages. The message carries the identifier and the data of the first communication device as well as the identifier(s) and the data of power device(s) coupled to the first communication device. The identifier of the first communication device may be an SN code of the first communication device, and the data of the first communication device may 10 comprise a strength of communication signals, an operation state, and the like, of the first communication device. The power device coupled to the first communication device may include, for example, an inverter. The identifier of the power device may be an SN code of the power device, and the data of the power device may comprise information on energy storage, power, temperature, and the like, of the power device. 15

[0082] In an embodiment, a first message uploaded by the first communication device is obtained. The first message may comprise the identifier and data of the first communication device. Additionally or alternatively, a second message uploaded by the first communication device is obtained. The second message comprises the identifier of the first communication device, an identifier of an inverter coupled to the first communication device, and data of the 20 inverter.

[0083] The system server may obtain the identifier and the data of the first communication device, and the identifier and the data of the inverter coupled to the first communication device, through the first message and the second message. An example may refer to FIG. 3. The first message comprises the identifier SN1, the strength of communication signals, and the 25 operation state of the first communication device. The second message comprises the identifier SN1 of the first communication device, the identifier SN1-A of the inverter coupled to the first communication device, and total energy output and a real-time power of the inverter.

[0084] In an embodiment, a third message uploaded by the first communication device is obtained. The third message comprises the identifier of the first communication device, an 30 identifier of an accessory device coupled to the first communication device, and data of the accessory device. The accessory device comprises at least one of: a battery, a charging pile, 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 and an electric meter. The accessory device is directly or indirectly coupled to the first communication device.

[0085] The accessory device directly coupled to the first communication device may refer to the accessory device directly connected to the first communication device via physical wires or 5 lines. The accessory device indirectly coupled to the first communication device may refer to the accessory device indirectly connected to the first communication device via physical wires or lines. For example, the accessory device may be physically connected to a power device that is directly connected to the first communication device.

[0086] The system server may obtain the identifier of the first communication device, and 10 the identifier and the data of the accessory device coupled to the first communication device, through the third message. The accessory device may comprise at least one of: the battery, the charging pile, and the electric meter. In an embodiment, the first communication device, the power device coupled to the first communication device, and the accessory device coupled to the first communication device are connected through physical wires or cables as shown in 15 FIG. 4. The power device directly coupled to the first communication device comprises inverter 1 and inverter 2, and the accessory device coupled to the first communication device is a battery. As shown in FIG. 4, the first communication device is directly coupled to inverter 1 and inverter 2, and the first communication device is indirectly coupled to the battery. The first communication device may upload the identifier and the data of the first communication 20 device, the identifiers of inverter 1 and the inverter 2, and the data of inverter1 and inverter 2 to the system server through the first message and the second message. The first communication device may transmit the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier and the data of the accessory device to the system server through the third message. As shown in FIG. 3, the third message may comprise the identifier SN1 of the first 25 communication device, the identifier SN1-1-A of the battery indirectly coupled to the first communication device, and data of the battery, such as remaining energy and temperature of the battery.

[0087] Hereinafter provided are some embodiments concerning a manner of determining whether the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device. 30

[0088] In an embodiment, the identifier of the first communication device is obtained from the device information. The device information is searched for the identifier of the target 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 power device, in response to an identifier of no power station being associated with the identifier of the first communication device. It is determined that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, in response to the identifier of the target power device being found in the device information. 5

[0089] In other words, the system server may obtain the identifier of the first communication device from the device information and query whether a power station (e.g., an identifier of the power station) has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device. In a case that no power station has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device, the system server would search one or more pieces of the device information, which are 10 sent by the first communication device, for the identifier of the target power device. In a case that the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device, it indicates that the target power device is not only a power device located in the target power station but also a power device coupled to the first communication device. In the latter case, the system server may attribute the first communication device to the target power station, that is, determine that 15 the first communication device is a communication device in the target power station. That is, the system server would obtain the identifier(s) of the power device(s) corresponding to the identifier of the first communication device from the device information, and associate both the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier(s) of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station. Hence, the 20 first communication device and the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device are determined to belong to the target power station, and they participate in the monitoring system for the target power station together with the target power device and the system server. Device(s) associated with the identifier of the target power station can be monitored and maintained through the monitoring system for the target power station. 25

[0090] As an alternative, in response to the identifier of the first power station being associated with the identifier of the first communication device, the identifier of the first communication device is associated with an identifier of a first power station, and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the first power station. 30

[0091] In other words, in a case that a power station has been associated with the identifier of the first communication device, the system server may associate both the identifier of the 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the first communication device with the identifier of such power station. Thereby, the first communication device and the power device coupled to the first communication device are attributed to the corresponding power station (i.e., the first power station), and the monitoring 5 system for the first power station is obtained or updated. Device(s) associated with the identifier of the first power station can thus be maintained and monitored through such monitoring system.

[0092] Hereinafter provided are some embodiments concerning a manner of associating the identifier of the first communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to 10 the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station.

[0093] In an embodiment, the identifier of the first communication device is associated with the identifier of the target power station. The identifier of another power device coupled to the first communication device is obtained from the device information. The identifier of the other power device is associated with the identifier of the target power station. An identifier 15 of each of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device is indicated in the device information.

[0094] In other words, the system server may associate the identifier of the first communication device with the identifier of the target power station and may obtain the identifier(s) of the power device(s) that correspond to the identifier of first communication 20 device, i.e., that are coupled to the first communication device, from the device information that is uploaded by the first communication device. Then, the identifier(s) of the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device are associated with the identifier of the target power station. Therefore, the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device are attributed to the target power station. The monitoring system for the target power station can 25 serve as a means of monitoring and maintaining the target power device, the first communication device, and the power device(s) coupled to the first communication device.

[0095] In the above embodiments, the system for monitoring the power station can be established without depending on on-site acquisition of an identifier of a communication device in a power station. Costs of the power station can be reduced. 30

[0096] In an embodiment, the system for monitoring the power station may alternatively be established in a following manner. 2025201410   27 Feb 2025

[0097] A second request for establishing a power station is obtained. An identifier of a second communication device is obtained from the second request. An identifier of a second power station in which the second communication device is located is generated. The identifier of the second power station is associated with the identifier of the second 5 communication device. Device information uploaded by the second communication device is obtained, where the device information comprises at least: the identifier of the second communication device and an identifier of a power device coupled to the second communication device. The identifier of power device coupled to the second communication device is associated with the identifier of the second power station. Thereby, a monitoring 10 system for the second power station is obtained (or updated), and the second communication device and / or the power device coupled to the second communication device may be monitored as a part of the second power station.

[0098] In an embodiment, the identifier of the second communication device may be obtained through scanning or inputting a device code of the second communication device using the 15 terminal device. After the terminal device obtains the identifier of the second communication device, the terminal device sends the second request to the system server, and the second request comprises the identifier of the second communication device. After receiving the second request, the system server obtains the identifier of the second communication device from the second request and attributes (an identifier of) a power station, i.e., the second power station, 20 for the second communication device. That is, the system server generates the identifier of the second power station, in which the second communication is located, and associates the identifier of the second power station with the identifier of the second communication device. Here "second" is for distinguishing such power station from the foregoing target power station, and the second power station may also be called a "target power station". 25

[0099] In an embodiment, the system server obtains the device information uploaded by the second communication device from message(s) uploaded by the second communication device. The device information comprises at least: the identifier of the second communication device and the identifier of the power device coupled to the second communication device. The identifier of the power device coupled to the second communication device is associated with 30 the identifier of the second power station, such that the second communication device, the system server, and the power device coupled to the second communication device all participate in the monitoring system for the second power station. The second communication device 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 and / or the power device coupled to the second communication device can thus be monitored and maintained.

[0100] In such process, the system server attributes the second power station to the second communication device through obtaining the identifier of the second communication device, 5 and the system server may obtain or update the monitoring system of the second power station through the device information uploaded by the second communication device. Thus, the second communication device and / or the power device coupled to the second communication device can be monitored and maintained.

[0101] Hereinafter an embodiment of establishing a system for monitoring the power station 10 is provided on a basis of the foregoing embodiments. This embodiment is applicable to a scenario in which an identifier of a communication device can be acquired on-site in a power station. A flowchart may refer to FIG. 5.

[0102] In step S502, a device code of a communication device is scanned for establishing a power station. 15

[0103] The terminal device scans the device code of the communication device to obtain the identifier, e.g., a SN code, of the communication device. After obtaining the identifier, the terminal device sends a request for establishing a power station to the system server, and the request comprises the identifier of the communication device. After receiving the request, the system server obtains the identifier of the communication device from the request and 20 determines to attribute (an identifier of) a power station to the communication device.

[0104] In step S504, an identifier of the power station is generated, and association between the identifier of the communication device and the identifier of the power station is established. Such association is maintained.

[0105] The system server attributes the power station to the communication device, i.e., 25 generates the identifier for the power station in which the communication device is located, and associates the identifier of the power station with the identifier of the communication device.

[0106] In step S506, the communication device uploads a message.

[0107] The communication device may first obtain an identifier and data of a power device and / or an accessory device, which is coupled to the communication device. Then, the 30 communication device generates the device information using the identifier and the data along 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 with the identifier of the communication device. Afterwards, the communication device sends the device information to the system server through the message(s). The power device coupled to the communication device may be an inverter. The accessory device coupled to the communication device may be, for example, a battery, a charging pile, or an electric meter. 5

[0108] In step S508, the system server parses the message to obtain device information.

[0109] The system server obtains the message(s) and parses the message(s) to obtain the corresponding device information. The device information comprises the identifier of the communication device. The device information may further comprise the identifier and the data of the power device directly or indirectly coupled to the communication device, and / or the 10 identifier and the data of the accessory device directly or indirectly coupled to the communication device.

[0110] In step S510, the communication device is mapped to the power station, and the power device and / or the accessory device coupled to the communication device are mapped to the power station, to obtain or update a monitoring system for the power station. 15

[0111] That is, the identifier(s) of the power device and / or the accessory device coupled to the communication device are associated with the identifier of the associated power station to obtain or update the monitoring system of the power station.

[0112] The identifier(s) of the power device and / or the accessory device coupled to the communication device are associated with the identifier of the associated power station to 20 obtain or update the monitoring system of the power station. Accordingly, the communication device and the power device and / or the accessory device can be maintained and monitored.

[0113] In step S512, the process terminates.

[0114] In the above solution, the system server obtains the identifier of the communication device to attribute the identifier of the power station to the communication device, and the 25 system server obtains or updates the monitoring system for the power station through the device information uploaded by the communication device. Thereby, the communication device, the power device, and the accessory device coupled to the communication device can be monitored and maintained.

[0115] A corresponding interaction diagram of the above system for monitoring the power 30 station may be as shown in FIG. 6. An additional device may include the power device and / or 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 the accessory device, the power device may be an inverter, and the accessory device may be a battery, a charging pile, an electric meter, or the like. The first message comprises the identifier and the data of the communication device. The second message comprises the identifier of the communication device, the identifier of the inverter coupled to the 5 communication device, and the data of the inverter. The third message comprises the identifier of the communication device, the identifier of the accessory device coupled to the communication device, and the data of the accessory device.

[0116] Hereinafter another embodiment of establishing a system for monitoring the power station is provided. The solution is applicable to a scenario in which the identifier of the 10 communication device cannot be acquired on-site at the power station. A flowchart of the solution may refer to FIG. 7.

[0117] In step S702, a device code of a target power device or a device code of a target accessory device is scanned for establishing a power station.

[0118] The target power device may include an inverter. The target accessory device may 15 be an accessory device coupled to a communication device, for example, may be a battery, a charging pile, or an electric meter. A terminal device may scan the device code of the target power device or that of the target accessory device to obtain an identifier of the target power device or an identifier of the target accessory device. Afterwards, the terminal device sends a request for establishing the power station to the system server, and the request comprises the 20 identifier of the target power device or that of the target accessory device, for example, an SN code of the target power device or an SN code of the target accessory device.

[0119] In step S704, an identifier of a power station is generated, and association between the identifier of the target power device, or the identifier of the target accessory device, and the identifier of the power station is established. Such association is maintained. 25

[0120] After receiving the request uploaded by the terminal device, the system server attributes (the identifier of) the power station to the target power device or the accessory device and associates the identifier of the target power device or the identifier of the accessory device in the request with the identifier of the power station.

[0121] In step S706, a communication device uploads message(s). 30

[0122] The communication device may determine the identifier of power device(s) and / or 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 accessory device(s), which are coupled to the communication device, in advance. The communication device may obtain information such as identifier(s) and data of the power device(s) and / or the accessory device(s), generate the device information using such information along with the identifier of the communication device, and send the device 5 information to the system server through message(s).

[0123] In step S708, the system server parses the message(s) to obtain the device information.

[0124] The system server may obtain the message(s) and parse the message(s) to obtain the corresponding device information. The device information comprises the identifier of the communication device, and further comprises the identifier and the data of the power device 10 directly or indirectly coupled to the communication device, and / or the identifier and the data of the accessory device directly or indirectly coupled to the communication device.

[0125] In step S710, the identifier of the communication device is obtained from the device information, and it is determined whether an identifier of a power station has been associated with the identifier of the communication device. The process proceeds to step S712 in case 15 of negative determination and proceeds to S716 in case of positive determination.

[0126] In step S712, it is determined whether the device information comprises the identifier of the target power device or the identifier of the target accessory device. The process proceeds to step S718 in case of negative determination and proceeds to step S714 in case of positive determination. 20

[0127] In step S714, the communication device is mapped to the power station, and the power device(s) and / or the accessory device(s) coupled to the communication device are also mapped to the power station. Thereby, the monitoring system for the target power station is obtained or updated. The process then proceeds to step S720.

[0128] That is, the identifier of the communication device, as well as the identifier(s) of the 25 power device(s) and / or the accessory device(s) coupled to the communication device, is associated with the identifier of the target power station to obtain or update the monitoring system for the target power station.

[0129] In step S716, both the identifier of the communication device and the identifier(s) of the power device(s) and / or the accessory device(s) coupled to the communication device are 30 associated with the identifier of the corresponding power station. The process then proceeds 2025201410   27 Feb 2025 to step S720.

[0130] In step S718, the communication device waits for further scanning of another device code for establishing another power station. The process then goes back to step S702 (for another target power device or another accessory device). 5

[0131] In step S720, the process terminates.

[0132] In the above solution, establishment of the power station does not depend on on-site acquisition of the identifier of the communication device, and hence it is applicable to a scenario in which the identifier of the communication device cannot be acquired on-site at the power station. A two-dimensional barcode of any device of a power station may be scanned, or an 10 identifier (e.g., an SN code) of any device of the power station may be inputted. Then, the power station may be established on a basis of the identifier of such device and device information uploaded automatically a communication device at predetermined time. No additional cost is required, field installation is convenient, and the user experience is improved.

[0133] Corresponding interaction schematic diagrams of the above solution may be as shown 15 in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9. The additional may include the power device and / or the accessory device, the power device may be an inverter, and the accessory device may be, for example, a battery, a charging pile, and an electric meter. The first message comprises the identifier and the data of the communication device. The second message comprises the identifier of the communication device, the identifier of the inverter coupled to the communication device, and 20 the data of the inverter. The third message comprises the identifier of the communication device, the identifier of the accessory device coupled to the communication device, and the data of the accessory device. FIG. 8 corresponds to a scenario of scanning the device code of the power device for establishing the power station. FIG. 9 corresponds to a scenario of scanning the device code of the accessory device for establishing the power station. 25

[0134] The above solutions do not depend on on-site acquisition of the identifier of the communication device during establishment of the system for monitoring the power station. A two-dimensional barcode of any device of a power station may be scanned, or an identifier (e.g., an SN code) of any device of the power station may be inputted. Then, the power station may be established on a basis of the identifier of such device and device information uploaded 30 automatically a communication device at predetermined time. No additional cost is required, field installation is convenient, and the user experience is improved. 2025201410   27 Feb 2025
