The Gateway is used for two tasks:
(a)
To set up and start the micro inverters (mandatory).
(b)
To connect to the SOLIVIA Monitor Portal where you can
monitor your micro inverters (optional).
For both tasks, you need a PC with an internet browser. Wi-Fi
works with Windows XP / Vista / 7 and Mac OS X. To connect
to SOLIVIA Monitor, you need an internet connection (e.g. via a
router).
