Why SolarEdge SE16K Inverter has no Internet connection?
If your SolarEdge Inverter has no internet connection, it may be due to a failed ping to google.com. Connect a laptop to the network to check for internet connectivity. If there is no internet access, contact your IT administrator or internet provider. If you are using Wi-Fi, make sure the username and password match those defined in your internet provider's access point or router.
What to do if SolarEdge SE16K gateway not responding?
If the gateway on your SolarEdge Inverter is not responding, it could be due to a failed ping to the router. Check the physical connection to the switch or router and ensure the link LED at the router/switch is lit, indicating a physical link. If the connection is OK, contact your network IT. Otherwise, replace the cable or change it from a cross to a straight connection.
How to fix SolarEdge SE16K pairing failed?
If pairing fails on your SolarEdge Inverter, it might be because the power optimizers are shaded. If you've connected the inverter to the monitoring platform, try pairing remotely during sunlight. Ensure the inverter's ON/OFF switch is ON and that S_OK appears on the status screen.
How to fix DHCP Failed or Invalid DHCP Config on SolarEdge Inverter?
If your SolarEdge Inverter shows 'DHCP Failed' or 'Invalid DHCP Config', it indicates an issue with the IP settings. To resolve this, check both the router and inverter configurations.
How to fix LAN Disconnected on SolarEdge SE16K Inverter?
If your SolarEdge Inverter shows 'LAN Disconnected', it indicates a fault with the physical connection. Check the cable pin-out assignment and cable connection.
Why SolarEdge SE16K Inverter has no connection to SolarEdge servers?
If your SolarEdge Inverter cannot connect to SolarEdge servers, the ping or connection to the SolarEdge server may have failed. Verify the SolarEdge server address under the LAN Configuration sub-menu. The address should be prod.solaredge.com and the port should be 22222. Check with your network administrator to see if a firewall or other device is blocking the transmission.
What to do if string voltage is lower than number of optimizers in SolarEdge Inverter?
If the string voltage of your SolarEdge Inverter is not 0V but lower than the number of optimizers, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure all power optimizers are properly connected in the string. Second, verify that all modules are correctly connected to the power optimizer inputs. Lastly, check the string polarity using a voltmeter and correct it if necessary.
Why is string voltage higher than number of optimizers in SolarEdge SE16K Inverter?
If the string voltage of your SolarEdge Inverter is higher than the number of optimizers, there could be a few reasons. First, check if an extra power optimizer is connected in the string. Next, verify that only power optimizers are connected in the string and that no module outputs are connected without a power optimizer. If the issue persists, follow these steps: 1. Disconnect the wires connecting the power optimizers in the string. 2. Measure the output voltage of each power optimizer to locate any that aren't outputting the 1V safety voltage. Check the connections, polarity, module, and voltage of any malfunctioning power optimizers.
What to do if Gateway Ping Failed on SolarEdge SE16K?
If your SolarEdge Inverter shows 'Gateway Ping Failed', the ping to the router has failed. Check the physical connection to the switch or router and ensure the link LED at the router or switch is lit, indicating a physical link. If the connection is fine, replace the cable or change it from cross to straight connection.
How to fix String voltage is 0V on SolarEdge SE16K?
If the string voltage is 0V on your SolarEdge Inverter, it means a power optimizer output is disconnected. To fix this, connect all power optimizer outputs.
