      Learn how to commission a newly installed Renogy X system while you are onsite in the field

      GETTING STARTED

      Make sure to follow the getting started guide available here before installing or commissioning a Renogy X solar system.

      RENOGY X INVERTER COMMISSIONING PROCESS: 

      Once the installation of the hardware and wiring is completed (this is part of a separate guide) and the power is on at the inverter (not the PV):

      1. Set the time on the inverter screen to match the local time (this might be different depending on your time zone) 
      2. Plug the wifi Data Logger into the communication port of the inverter. 
      3. Log in to the RENOGY X PRO mobile application (see GETTING STARTED steps if it’s the first time and you don't yet have an account)
      4. Click on the '+' sign (top right corner) to ‘Create a Plant’ by adding the relevant details (i.g. street address, name, system & plant type, cover image, etc.)

      5. ‘Add Datalogger’ through the RENOGY X PRO mobile app. This allows you to scan the QR code on the Data Logger.

      6. Configure the network for the Data Logger using the app ‘WiFi Configuration’ feature. NOTE: here you'll need to enter the customer's WiFi name and password.

      7. Grant Admin permission to the equipment manufacturer RENOGY X to allow for remote maintenance, troubleshooting, and over-the-air (OTA) firmware update:    
      8. Next, the installer should help the homeowner to: 
        1. install the RENOGY X mobile app on their device

        * The Networking step should not be required because already done by the installer in 5.a. The homeowner will need to do the Networking of the data logger with the RENOGY X app ONLY if there is a change in the local WiFi.  
      9. The homeowner can now monitor the system and see the real-time energy data.
