Two communication glands
, for connection of inverter communication options. Each gland has
three openings. Refer to
Setting Up Communication to the Monitoring Platform

LCD light button
: Pressing this button lights up the LCD for 30 seconds. In addition, you can press
this button to view inverter status screens and access configuration menu options, as described
Configuring the Inverter Using the LCD Light Button
l
ON/OFF switch
: Turning this switch ON (after the power optimizers are paired with the inverter)
starts the operation of the power optimizers, enables power production and allows the inverter to
begin exporting power to the utility grid/backed-up loads. Turning it OFF reduces the power
optimizer voltage to a low safety voltage and inhibits exportation of power. When this switch is OFF,
the inverter control circuitry remains powered up.

LCD LEDs
: Three LEDs indicate the following inverter statuses:

Description
Functionality
Green
Power production
On
- The inverter is producing power.
Blinking
- Standby mode. The inverter is in Standby mode until its
working voltage is reached. The inverter then enters Production
mode and produces power.
Off
- The inverter is not producing power. This may be during Night
mode, when the inverter ON/OFF switch is OFF or when an error
occurs.
Yellow
Module communication and
inverter shutdown
Blinking
:
o
Monitoring information is being received from a power
optimizer.
o
The inverter is being shut down.
Red
Fault
On
on page 93 for
more information.
Blinking
- The inverter is being shut down.
All LEDs turn on while the inverter is being configured.
