Step 3, Verifying Proper Operation
After the wake-up time is over, a message similar to the following appears on the inverter LCD panel:
V a c [ v ] V d c [ v ] P a c [ w ]
2 4 0 . 7 3 7 1 . 9 2 3 4 9 . 3
P _ O K : X X X / Y Y Y < S _ O K >
O N

Verify the following:
The green inverter LED is steadily lit.
The ON/OFF indicator on the LCD panel reads
ON
.
P_OK: XXX/YYY:
There is a connection to the power optimizers and at least one power
optimizer is sending monitoring data. Optimizers send telemetries every 10 minutes
approximately. Initially after pairing, the YYY number shows the number of paired power
optimizers, and XXX shows 000 since no optimizer reported in the last hour. While telemetries
arrive from different optimizers, the XXX value increases until reaching the number of paired
optimizers. This should take approx. 20 min.. If XXX and YYY are not equal after 20 minutes,
there may be a pairing issue.
NOTE:
It can take up to 20 minutes for all power optimizers to transmit their telemetries and to be
counted on the LCD screen.
S_OK
appears, if the inverter is connected to the SolarEdge monitoring server.
Vac [V]
specifies the measured grid AC output voltage.
Vdc [V]
specifies the
DC input voltage, which should be between 350V and 400V.
Pac [W]
specifies the
total
AC output power produced.

Take note of the serial # on the inverter label. This information is used in the SolarEdge monitoring
portal to identify this inverter and is needed to open a new site in the monitoring portal.
Congratulations! Your SolarEdge power harvesting system is now operational.
Step 4, Reporting and Monitoring Installation Data
The SolarEdge Monitoring System
The SolarEdge monitoring portal enables accessing SolarEdge site information, including up-to-date
information viewed in a physical or logical view.
The monitoring portal is described in detail in the
SolarEdge Monitoring Portal User Guide,
available on the
SolarEdge website at
http://www.solaredge.com/files/pdfs/solaredge-monitoring-portal-user-guide.pdf
The SolarEdge monitoring portal can display logical and physical layouts of the installed system, as follows:
Logical Layout:
Shows a schematic logical layout of the components in the system, such as:
inverters, clusters, strings and modules, as well as their electrical connectivity. This view enables you
to see which modules are connected in each string, which strings are connected to each inverter, and
so on.
Physical Layout:
Shows a schematic physical layout of the components in the system, such as:
inverters, clusters, strings and modules, as well as their electrical connectivity. This view enables a
bird’s eye view
of the actual location of a system component.
