theconnectiontothemonitoringserverhasbeensuccessfullyestablished.
1. Closetheinvertercover:Attachtheinvertercoverandsecureitbytighteningthescrewswitha
torqueof9.0N*m/6.6lb.*ft.Forpropersealing,firsttightenthecornerscrewsandthenthetwo
centralscrews.
2. IfnotalreadyON-TurnONtheACtotheinverterbyturningONthecircuitbreakeronthemain
distributionpanelandturningontheConnectionUnit.
3. WaitfortheinvertertoconnecttotheSolarEdgemonitoringplatform.Thismaytakeuptotwo
minutes.
