iSolarCloud App

7.1

Brief Introduction

The iSolarCloud App can establish communication connection to the inverter via the Blue-

tooth, thereby achieving near-end maintenance on the inverter. Users can use the App to

view basic information, alarms, and events, set parameters, or download logs, etc.

Screenshots in this manual are based on the Android system V2.1.6 , and the ac-

tual interfaces may differ.
