�.� Inverter Installation The inverter should be mounted in a vertical position. The steps of mounting are as follows �. For brick walls, the position of the holes should be suitable for the expansion bolts. �. Make sure the bracket is horizontal and the mounting holes are in the correct points. Drilling the holes on the wall according the marks.

�.� Connection of the ground line Good grounded is important for resist the surge voltage shock and improve EMI's performance. So before the connection of AC, DC, communication connections, inverter needs to ground first. For a single system, just ground the PE cable; For multiple machine systems, all PE cables of the inverter need to be connected to the same grounding copper platoon to ensure the equipotent connection.

The configuration of the datalogger needs to be performed after various electrical connections have been completed and the inverter DC power on.
Page 21
�.�.� Configuration of datalogger For the configuration of datalogger, please refer to illustrations of the datalogger. �. Start up and Shut off Ensure that the inverter meets the following conditions before starting the inverter, otherwise it may cause fire or damage to the inverter without quality assurance, at the same time the situation on our company does not undertake any responsibility.

�. Zero-export function via energy meter There're four kinds of energy meters for this series inverter. First type is Eastron SDM���-Mod- bus V� which is able to measure the Max. ���A current directly. More details please refer to Pic �.� & �.�. For the Eastron SDM��� MCT ��mA, it needs external CT to measure the current. The CT power range is from �A-����A.

�. Repair and Maintenance String type inverter doesn’t need regular maintenance. However, debris or dust will affect heat sink’s thermal performance. It is better to clean it with a soft brush. If the surface is too dirty and affect the reading of LCD and LED lamp, you can use wet cloth to clean it up. High Temperature Hazard: When the device is running, the local temperature is too high and the touch can cause burns.
Check the solar panel output connection. F�� Failure in reading memory (EEPROM). Restart the inverter if the Read the memory error fault still exists, contact your installer or Deye service.
