Tigo Access Point Wirelessly Connects Rooftop TS4 Devices
The Tigo Access Point (TAP) is a wireless mesh communication device that talks to Tigo TS4 units on the roof and passes their data to the Cloud Connect Advanced (CCA) over an RS485 cable. It also provides grid status to the TS4 MLPE for UL compliant rapid shutdown.
It is designed for use with the TS4-A-O, TS4-X-O, TS4-A-S and TS4-X-S.
