Normal Operation
Once the Envoy completes a scan, it begins or resumes normal operation. At this point, the
indicators in the LCD screen show current values for your system. This is the home screen:
The data on the home screen may take a few minutes to appear after starting up the Envoy or
initiating a scan. Information shown during normal operation includes:
• Local IP address, for example: 192.168.2.140 (your actual local IP address will be
different). The Envoy will attempt to get a dynamically assigned DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) IP address during power up sequence. The Envoy uses the
DHCP IP address as a path to the Internet. If 169.254.120.1 is shown, the Envoy has
not yet acquired a dynamic IP. Refer to “Troubleshooting” on page
24, if this address
continues to display.
• Web connection indication: +Web. The web status indicates whether the Envoy is
connected to Enlighten.
• Indication of the present power-production, in watts: (n)W (where n is a number)
• Indication of the life time kilowatt hours reported to this Envoy: (n)kWh (where n is a
number)
• Indication of the number of online microinverters producing power and reporting in to
the Envoy:
(n) (where n is a number). The number of microinverters displayed will be
zero at night.
After the Envoy establishes an IP address and the web connection, the Envoy periodically contacts
an NTP (Network Time Protocol) server so that it can maintain an accurate local time.
