Accessing Inverter via LAN (Local Area Network)

Inverter
The illustration above is a typical LAN connection. The inverter and devices
are connected to a router by Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi. Computers and other
devices in the LAN can access inverter's data if its IP address is known.
The router, acting as a DHCP server, usually assigns an IP to the inverter
automatically. You can also manually assign an IP to the inverter with the
router as well. Use touch pad to go to "Operation Frame" for IP confirmation.
Accessing Inverter via Internet

Computer via LAN
Inverter
The illustration above demonstrates how to access the inverter via Internet.
Similar to LAN, the inverter can be accessed by web browser. However, there
is usually a firewall that would block direct access of the LAN from the
Internet. In order to overcome this, you will need to set up NAT (Network
Address Translation) or Port Forwarding of the router. For detailed
information, please refer to the manual provided by your router supplier.
