Connection via Wifi
1 | Router (WiFi/LAN) in the home network with access to the Internet |
2 | Computer/tablet (for configuration or data retrieval) |
3 | Internet |
4 | Inverter with WLAN client |
INFO
No Wifi and LAN connection to the same router at the same time.
If the inverter is already connected to the home network (e.g. to a router) via LAN, an additional connection to the same router in the home network via Wifi should be avoided. As a rule, preference should be given to a LAN connection over a Wifi connection because this connection is always more stable.
If you want to connect the inverter to the home network via Wifi alone, it is important to have a sufficiently strong signal quality at the installation site.
The inverter can also be used as a WLAN bridge for other devices (e.g. KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter, battery storage unit).
Connect the additional devices to the two LAN interfaces on the Smart Communication Board in the inverter.
The connection to the router can be configured during the initial installation or later via the inverter's Webserver.
To do this, the Wifi interface in the inverter must be set to Client mode via the Webserver under Settings > Network > Wifi > Wifi mode and a wireless network must be selected.
