11 Shinelink-X lights correct, but inverter offline
Are all the lights on correctly, but is the inverter still offline? Then check that the correct
serial number is associated with the account. With the Shinelink-X, the serial number of the
Shinelanbox (base station) must be linked and not that of the RF-stick (dongle).

13 Requirements and preparation
Supplies:
• Shinelan-X
• A modem or router with a free network port
Preparations:
It is important that the inverter is switched on. Most Growatt inverters only turn on when the
solar panels are connected and they provide sufficient power. This means that the
configuration can only be done in sufficient daylight.
