Detect Devices
A ) Turn on the DG breaker(s).
B ) Use one of the following methods to detect devices (Enphase IQ Microin-
verters and/or Enphase Batteries):
Method A // Provision devices with Installer Toolkit
Use the Installer Toolkit mobile app to configure the IQ Envoy with the serial
numbers of the installed devices.
A ) Launch the Installer Toolkit app and tap View Systems.
B ) Select the system you are working with, or tap [+] to add a system.
C ) Connect to the IQ Envoy with your mobile device (smart phone or tablet).
The AP Mode LED
lights solid green when the network is available.
On the Envoy, if the AP Mode LED is not lit, press the AP Mode button.
•
On your mobile device, go to Settings and join the Wi-Fi network
•
"Envoy_nnnnnn" (where "nnnnnn" equals the final six digits of the IQ
Envoy serial number).
D ) If the serial number for the Envoy you are installing is not displayed on the
System Overview screen, tap the [+] next to the word "Envoys". When the
app displays the serial number of the Envoy, tap it to add it to the system.
E ) Following the on-screen instructions to create the arrays and scan the
serial numbers from the installation map.
F ) Tap the Connect button. This provisions the scanned devices on the Envoy.
G ) When prompted, confirm the number of devices that you installed.
H ) If your system is in Hawaii or in a region that does not use the Factory-
Installed Grid Profile, select and apply a grid profile to the devices.
The Device Communications LED
es are communicating or solid amber if any devices are not communicating.
Method B // Discover devices with Installer Toolkit
Use the Installer Toolkit mobile app to set the number of devices the IQ
Envoy should search for on the power line.
A ) Connect to the IQ Envoy with your mobile device (smart phone or tablet).
The AP Mode LED
lights solid green when the network is available.
On the Envoy, if the AP Mode LED is not lit, press the AP Mode button.
•
On your mobile device, go to Settings and join the Wi-Fi network "En-
•
voy_nnnnnn" (where "nnnnnn" equals the final six digits of the IQ Envoy
serial number).
B ) Launch Installer Toolkit and tap Connect to an Envoy.
C ) When prompted, enter the number of devices that you installed.
D ) If your system is in Hawaii or in region that does not use the Factory-
Installed Grid Profile, select and apply a grid profile to the devices.
E ) When prompted to start a device scan, tap OK.
The Device Communications LED
green when all the devices you installed are communicating, or solid amber
if any devices are not communicating.
With both methods
If the Device Communications LED remains solid amber, see Troubleshooting

Verify System Configuration
While still connected to the IQ Envoy with Installer Toolkit, check the Over-
view screen for the following:
A ) Confirm that the expected number of devices are detected and communi-
cating.
B ) Check that the new profile is set on all the devices. Setting the profile
may take up to 5 minutes for a typical system.
C ) Tap the Meters button.
lights solid green if all provisioned devic-
flashes green while scanning, solid
D ) Tap Production Meter and follow the on-screen instructions to enable
the Production Meter.
E ) If you installed consumption metering CT(s), tap Consumption Meter
and follow the on-screen instructions to enable the Consumption Meter.
F ) Return to the Overview screen and verify the meter reading(s).
If you used Installer Toolkit to detect devices, the Power Production LED
lights solid green when all expected microinverters are producing power.
If you did not use Installer Toolkit, it lights solid green if all communicating
microinverters are producing power. It flashes green when devices are
upgrading. Check Installer Toolkit for production status details. If the Power
Production LED remains solid amber, see Troubleshooting
Connect to Enlighten
10
This step describes using the IQ Envoy integrated Wi-Fi or the Mobile
Connect modem to connect to the Internet. For information about using
Ethernet and/or PLC bridges, refer to the Enphase IQ Envoy Installation and
Operation Manual at: enphase.com/support.
Method A // Integrated Wi-Fi
Requires a wireless router with an Internet connection.
A ) On the Envoy, verify that no Ethernet cable is plugged into the RJ45 port.
B ) If the router supports WPS, press and hold the WPS button on the wireless
router for a few seconds. On
most routers, a WPS indicator
begins flashing.
C ) If you are using the Installer
Toolkit mobile app, tap the
Network button, tap Wi-Fi,
and then tap your network
from the list of available net-
works. If the wireless router
does not support WPS, you may be prompted to enter a password.
The Network Communications LED
minutes the same LED lights solid green, indicating a successful connec-
tion to Enlighten. If the Network Communications LED remains off or lights
solid amber, see Troubleshooting
Method B // Enphase Mobile Connect Modem
(Order CELLMODEM-01 or CELLMODEM-03 separately)
A ) Connect the antenna(s) to the modem, and mount the modem as
described in the Enphase Mobile Connect Installation Guide.
B ) First, connect the USB cable to the IQ Envoy and
then connect the mini-USB connector to the modem.
If receiving power from the IQ Envoy, the modem power
LED lights.
Within three minutes the Network Communications LED
lights solid green, indicating a successful connection
to Enlighten. If the Network Communications LED remains
off or lights solid amber, see Troubleshooting in the En-
phase Mobile Connect Installation Guide.

Send System Summary Report
11
When you have completed your system setup, you can generate and email
a summary report.
A ) From Installer Toolkit, tap Done in the upper-right corner of the screen
to disconnect from the Envoy. Installer Toolkit will ask if you want to
view a summary report.
B ) Tap View Report. The report displays IQ Envoy and system information
with a list of device serial numbers, their last power reports, and infor-
mation about the grid profile applied to the microinverters.
C ) Tap
to email the report to your office as a record of successful
system installation or to the utility for evidence of grid profile settings.
