Envoy Installation and Operation
2014 Enphase Energy Inc. 141-00011 Rev 05
19
LCD Screen Display at Initial Start Up
When the Envoy starts up for the first time, it goes
through the initial boot sequence. During this initial
boot sequence, the Envoy LCD screen displays start-
up progress as shown:
Initial Communications Check
The last two screens in the initial sequence
alternate until the Communications Check ends, after
20 minutes. The Envoy normally displays
"-Web" for two to three minutes after the first start up.
It then sends the first report to Enlighten. When
Enlighten responds, the Envoy displays “+Web”.
Subsequent Start Up
After a power outage or Envoy shut down, the Envoy
is ready to work just five minutes after reapplying
power. You will know the Envoy has completed
booting and has started normal operation when it
displays both an IP address and the “+Web” status
indication in the LCD screen. The normal, post-
installation boot sequence is similar to the initial start
up, although the “Initializing Data” screen is not
repeated.
