6.3.2. With Network
If a network is present, the availability of DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
determines the configuration between the inverter and the computer. With DCHP, normally a
router or a switch distributes the needed parameters (IP address and Subnet Mask) for devices
to operate in the network.
Figure 6.3.2:Connection with network and World Wide Web
Connect the inverter and the PC to the router/switch with a regular CAT5 Ethernet cable.
With DHCP
In the inverter:
1. Go to Setup>Network Setup.
2. Set the IP address to 000.000.00.00. With this setting the router/switch assigns the network
parameters automatically to the inverter.
When changing the network settings the GUI will restart after pressing OK.
Without DHCP
In the inverter:
1. Go to Setup>Network Setup.
2. Set the IP address to the desired, unique address of the inverter. The inverter IP address
must be an unused IP address in the network.
6.3.3. Access from the Internet
In order to make the inverter(s) accessible from the internet further parameters must be set
within the network settings.
• First the HE-t inverter must be assigned a static IP address in the local network, this can
either be done through the inverter as described above, or can be configured within the
network router/switch.
• Next it will be required to set up 'Port Forwarding' within the local network router. This
will usually be in the 'advanced settings' of the router/switch, but will vary from
manufacturer to manufacturer. Port '80' of the router must be forwarded to the static IP
