Verifying The Connection - SolarEdge StorEdge SE7600A-US1 Installation Manual

Verifying the Connection

10. Terminate the first and last SolarEdge device (inverter/Control and Communication gateway, etc.) in
the chain by switching a termination DIP-switch inside the inverter to ON (move the left switch up).
The switch is located on the communication board and is marked SW7.
NOTE
Only the first and last SolarEdge devices in the chain should be terminated. The other inverters in
the chain should have the termination switch OFF (down position).
11. If not using surge protection, connect the grounding wire to the first inverter in the RS485 chain;
make sure the grounding wire is not in contact with other wires. For inverters with a DC Safety
Switch, connect the grounding wire to the grounding bus-bar in the DC Safety Switch.
Verifying the Connection
After connecting and configuring a communication option, perform the following steps to check that
the connection to the monitoring server has been successfully established.
1. Close the inverter cover: Attach the inverter cover and secure it by tightening the screws with a
torque of 9.0 N*m/ 6.6 lb.*ft. For proper sealing, first tighten the corner screws and then the two
central screws.
2. If not already ON - Turn ON the AC to the inverter by turning ON the circuit breaker on the main
distribution panel and turning on the Connection Unit.
3. Wait for the inverter to connect to the SolarEdge monitoring platform. This may take up to two
minutes.
A status screen similar to the following appears on the LCD panel:
