Chapter 1: Introducing the SolarEdge Control

and Communication Gateway

Overview

The SolarEdge control and communication gateway expands the SolarEdge monitoring and control

capabilities. It can be connected to SolarEdge and non-SolarEdge inverters, environmental sensors and

revenue meters and can transfer the monitoring data to the SolarEdge monitoring server and optionally,

to a non-SolarEdge logger.

The control and communication gateway can connect to the following devices1:

SolarEdge devices, such as inverters and safety and monitoring interfaces (SMIs)

Non-SolarEdge inverters for inverter data monitoring on the SolarEdge portal

Environmental sensors

Revenue grade meters

3rd party external loggers for inverter data monitoring

Power reduction control devices

NOTE:

Sensors, meters, loggers, and power reduction control devices are sold separately .

LCD and LCD-Menu Buttons

The LCD screen displays status information of the SolarEdge gateway and various menus for configuration

options. The LCD panel and buttons are used during the following processes:

Operational Mode: The LCD panel allows checking that the gateway is working properly. Refer to

Status Screens on page 32 for a description of this option. Use the LCD user buttons to toggle

through the informative displays and select options.

Setup: After mounting the gateway, the installer may perform basic gateway configuration, as

described in Setup Menu Options on page 35.

Four buttons are used for controlling the LCD menus (see Figure 3):

Esc: Moves the cursor to the beginning of the parameter, goes to the previous menu and cancels a

value change.

Up (1), Down (2): Moves the cursor between menu options, moves among the characters of a

parameter, and toggles between possible characters when setting a value.

Enter (3): Selects a menu option or accepts a value change. Also used to enable LCD backlight.

LEDs

The front of the SolarEdge gateway has an LCD panel and three LEDs, as shown above:

The gateway has three LED indicators, as follows:

Power OK (Green): Indicates whether or not the SolarEdge gateway is connected to power

Communication (Yellow): This LED blinks when monitoring information is received from another

SolarEdge device in the installation.

Fault (Red): Indicates that there is an error. For more information, contact SolarEdge support.

All LEDs are ON while the SolarEdge gateway is being configured and during power up.

Communication Connectors

Antenna1: used for optional wireless ZigBee or Wi-Fi antenna connection (refer to Wireless ZigBee

Connection and Wi-Fi Connection on page 45.

Antenna2: Currently not installed

RS485-1 and RS485-2: used for connecting external devices to the gateway (refer to Chapter 3:

Connecting the SolarEdge Gateway to the SolarEdge Installation on page 15)

RS232: enables connection of the SolarEdge gateway to an external device using an RS232 interface.

USB: Enables PC/laptop connection for using the SolarEdge configuration tool.

Ethernet: enables connecting the SolarEdge gateway to the SolarEdge monitoring portal through an

Ethernet switch/router (refer to Creating an Ethernet (LAN) Connection on page 42). The Ethernet

switch/router should be connected to the Internet.
