SunSpec arranges device registers into numbered groups called models, and each model opens with a header that gives its identifier and length. An inverter supports only the models its vendor lists, and registers it does not implement within a model are marked Reserved and should not be used. SunSpec is described as an application-layer protocol that lets distributed energy resources interoperate with smart grid applications. SMA inverter documentation notes that SunSpec profile 2.0 dropped the older frequency-watt model 127 and replaced it with model 711, so check which profile the device firmware uses before mapping curve registers. In a vendor map such as the Yaskawa Solectria SGI XTM, a frequency-watt curve is written as a number of points from 2 to 10 with paired frequency and watt percentages, plus ramp time and time window settings.
