Zigbee Range Test user manual
Introduction
The Enphase Zigbee Range Test allows installers to test the quality of Zigbee RF link
between any two locations. If conducted in advance of installing the actual Enphase Energy
System equipment, it can ensure that the Zigbee network is properly formed when the
equipment is installed and has an acceptable RF link quality. If the Range Test finds that the
quality of RF link with selected equipment locations is not sufficient, it prompts the user
to rerun the test with a Zigbee Wireless Range Extender (ZWRE). It is a simple procedure
which is guided by the Enphase Installer App step by step. An alternative range extension
method based on Wired USB Extender (WUE) is also described in the user guide.
