NOTE:
If the
S_OK
indication is not displayed, then perform the following:
Use another method (unrelated to the SolarEdge device) to check whether the network and modem are operating properly. For
example, connect a laptop to the Ethernet modem and connect to the Internet.
Check the Server Communication status screen by short pressing the LCD button. If the
Modem Disconnected
message (appears
only in firmware version 2.250 and above) is displayed, verify the physical connection between the modem and the SolarEdge device
or reset the GSM modem.
Check the Server Communication status screen by short pressing the LCD button. If the
Absent or Locked SIM
message is displayed,
check that the SIM card is fully inserted in the right direction.
Verify with your GSM network provider that the SIM card is not locked for GPRS data usage.
Verify that there is cellular reception near the GSM modem.
Check the configuration of the SolarEdge device.
S_OK:
Verify that S_OK appears on the panel to
indicate a functioning connection to the SolarEdge
Monitoring Server, which was validated during the
last two minutes.
