Create LAN direct connection between inverter/computer
This variant is mainly used when configuring using the Webserver on site.
DANGER
Risk of death due to electrical shock and discharge!
- De-energise device and secure against being switched on again.
INFO
Use a patch cable of category 5 (Cat 5e) or better with a length of max. 100 m.
INFO
If the inverter is connected directly to the PC and has not yet been given its own IP address via a DHCP server, an IP address must be configured manually for the inverter in the inverter itself. This can then be entered into the browser's address bar on the PC to access the Webserver.
Connecting the Ethernet cable to a router integrates the inverter into your own network and the inverter can then be contacted by all computers incorporated in the same network.
