    i'm not the right person to answer that question as i don't have an outback controller. very nice controller, but i budgeted lower for a different controller years ago that i can sometimes kick myself for. i'll let some of the guys with the controller answer the questions you may have about it.

    Jacques,

    I’m not aware of any data analyzing software supplied by Outback for their Mate system controller and display. The Mate itself contains limited capabilities.

    There are a couple of third party software packages available. Right Hand Engineering makes the Winverter application, and Intellact makes WattPlot. I have a copy of Winverter, but that should not be considered an endorsement, as I've not done much the application, and I bought it before I knew about WattPlot.

    The OutBack forum might be a better place for information about, and assessments of, these programs.

    HTH,
    Jim / crewzer
