Data Logger Showing a Green Light Only

Created by Joel Egan, Modified on Fri, 19 May 2023 at 12:33 PM by Joel Egan

The below is a fix for the problem if the data logger is showing a green light only.

What causes this is when the data logger is first connected to the internet, the Static IP button is enabled. With this enabled, the IP address will always stay the same and never change when your internet router is rebooted. This method will work if you assign the static IP to the device at DHCP level so nothing else can use it.

The reason you get the green light only is because the assigned static IP hasn’t been reserved, and another device on your network as connected using the same IP address.

 

 

To resolve this problem, please follow the 6 steps below:

 

  1. Turn off your internet router completely.

  2.  Once your router is turned off, go to your Wi-Fi settings on your mobile / cell phone or laptop.

  3. You should see a Wi-Fi connection called EAP-****. Connect to this end enter the password 12345678.

Note. If you do not see the EAP connection with Wi-Fi list, unplug the data logger from the inverter and plug back in again.

 

  1. Once you are connected to the data logger EAP connection, open an internet browser and search 10.10.10.

  2. When the data logger browser opens, scroll down until you see Use the following static IP address.
  3. Untick Static IP and click Save.

 

  1. Turn on your internet router again.

 

Trouble Shooting:

 

If the EAP Wi-Fi SSID doesn’t show up when trying the above – Unplug the data logger from the bottom of the inverter and plug back in again.

 

If the data logger is not connected to the internet after following the above steps – Follow step 2-4 again and click scan at the bottom of the page. Once you see your Wi-Fi SSID, click connect and enter your Wi-Fi password.
