Step 12: Connect the Envoy to the Internet
WARNING! Risk of equipment damage. Do not remove power from the Envoy if the LCD
displays: "Upgrading. . . Do Not Unplug."
Connect to a broadband router using method A or B, then verify the connection as follows:
Method A: Ethernet Cable
a. Plug the included Ethernet cable into the
Ethernet port on the Envoy.
b. Plug the other end of the cable into a port on
the broadband router.
Method B: Wi-Fi (Enphase Wireless Adapter)
This method requires a wireless router and an Enphase Wireless
Adapter (order WF-01).
NOTE: Only install the Enphase Wireless Adapter in
locations where temperatures remain between 0° and
40° C (32° and 104° F).
a. On the Envoy, verify that no Ethernet cable is
plugged into the Envoy RJ45 port.
b. Verify that the startup message on the LCD screen reads "R3.12" or later.
•
If not, upgrade the Envoy by connecting the Envoy Ethernet port to the broadband router
with the Ethernet cable that came with the Envoy.
•
After the upgrade completes, remove the Ethernet cable from the Envoy.
c. Plug the Enphase wireless adapter into the left USB port (looking at Envoy from the front),
and wait 10 seconds.
d. Press and hold the WPS button on the wireless router for two seconds. On many routers, the
WPS button flashes at this point.
e. Return to the Envoy. Press and hold the Envoy menu button. Release the Envoy menu
button when the LCD displays Enable Wi-Fi WPS.
f.
Within two minutes an updated IP address appears on the Envoy LCD screen. This IP
address begins with a "W" to indicate a wireless connection.
g. If the wireless router does not support WPS, refer to the Envoy Communications Gateway
Installation and Operation Manual at: http://www.enphase.com/support for set up.
Verification: Check the Internet Connection
Look for the + Web indication. If it does not appear within
five minutes after connecting to the broadband router, refer
to the Envoy Communications Gateway Installation and
Operation Manual at: http://www.enphase.com/support for
troubleshooting information.
