Appendix B: Configuring the Home
Gateway
This procedure describes how to configure the home gateway to
work with a static IP instead of automatic DHCP. When using
standard automatic DHCP routers, this step is not required. Change
the IP settings only when the router/server is set to static IP mode
and as part of troubleshooting the Ethernet (Troubleshooting
Ethernet Connection on page 18).
To configure the home gateway communication, use the SolarEdge
configuration tool, as described below. The configuration tool is a
software application that enables to configure SolarEdge specific
parameters and to display and troubleshoot site-specific issues. The
application provides a standard Windows GUI that can be accessed
by connecting a computer or laptop to the home gateway through its
USB port.
When connecting the home gateway to a PC, no other USB devices
should be connected to the same USB port using a USB splitter.
