IQ Envoy Installation and Operation
9. Activate Monitoring
Register the IQ Envoy for monitoring of Enphase Microinverters in Enlighten at enlighten.enphaseenergy.com
. Once you have registered the system and successfully installed the IQ Envoy,
Enlighten generates an account for the site owner. When you complete the registration and installation,
Enphase sends account information to the site owner allowing them to log in to the Enlighten website and view system performance.
Method A: If the IQ Envoy is Associated with a System in Installer Toolkit
a. On your mobile device, go to your Wi-Fi settings and disconnect from the Envoy’s AP network. This should restore Internet connectivity to your device. b. Return to the Installer Toolkit app and tap the Sync button on the System Overview screen. c. Log in to Enlighten and click on the system activation’s name from the installer dashboard. d. From the activation form, open Array Builder. To see the Array Builder demo, go to enphase.com/support/videos .
•
If you used Installer Toolkit to build arrays and scan microinverter serial numbers, the array(s) are built. Make any necessary adjustments in
Array Builder.
•
If you did NOT use Installer Toolkit to build arrays and scan microinverter serial numbers, create the virtual array in Array Builder using the installation map as your reference. (You may need to wait if the microinverters have not yet reported to Enlighten.)
Method B: If the IQ Envoy is NOT associated with a System in Installer Toolkit
a. Log into Enlighten and click Add a New System from the installer dashboard. b. Enter the System, Installer, Owner, and Location information. c. Enter the Envoy serial number. d. Click Save to submit the form. e. After the microinverters have reported to
Enlighten, open Array Builder from the activation form, and create the virtual array, using the installation map as your reference.
To see the Array Builder demo, go to enphase.com/support/videos .
View System Performance in Enlighten
Once the array is built and the system is activated, you can log in to Enlighten to view site data. Enlighten displays a graphic representation of the PV system. It also shows detailed current and historical performance information.
