Envoy Installation and Operation
2014 Enphase Energy Inc. 141-00011 Rev 05
Normal Operation
Once the Envoy completes a scan, normal operation begins or resumes. At this point, the indicators in the
LCD screen show current values for your system. This is the home screen:
It may be a few minutes before energy data appears or increases on the home screen after starting up the
Envoy or initiating a scan. Information shown during normal operation includes:
Local IP address, for example: 192.168.2.140 (your actual local IP address will be different). The
Envoy attempts to get a dynamically assigned DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) IP
address during power-up sequence. The Envoy uses the DHCP IP address as a route to the
Internet. If 169.254.120.1 is shown, the Envoy has not yet acquired a dynamic IP. Refer to
“Troubleshooting” on page 29, if this address continues to display.
Web connection indication: +Web. The web status indicates whether the Envoy is connected to
Enlighten. The status -Web indicates that the Envoy is not connected to Enlighten.
Indication of the present power-production, in watts: (n)W (where n is a number)
Indication of the life time kilowatt hours reported to this Envoy: (n)kWh (where n is a number)
Indication of the number of online microinverters producing power, reporting in to the Envoy, and not
having any error conditions: (n) (where n is a number). At night, the number of microinverters
displayed is zero.
After the Envoy establishes an IP address and the web connection, the Envoy periodically contacts an NTP
(Network Time Protocol) server to maintain an accurate local time.
