5 <strong>Envoy</strong> Local Interface<br />

Connection to the Enphase Enlighten web-based monitoring and analysis website<br />

requires an Internet connection. However, if there is no Internet access at the<br />

installation site, it is still possible to communicate directly with the <strong>Envoy</strong> using the<br />

Ethernet port and a personal computer with a web browser. The following steps<br />

describe how to access the <strong>Envoy</strong> and the data that is available through the local<br />

connection.<br />

1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable supplied with the <strong>Envoy</strong> to the <strong>Envoy</strong> port<br />

labeled “Ethernet”.<br />

2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 network port of the<br />

computer.<br />

3. Open the Internet browser application on the computer.<br />

4. In the browser address window enter the IP address displayed in the LCD window<br />

of the <strong>Envoy</strong> (192.194.2.141 in this example).<br />

If you fail to make a connection at this point, you can try to manually configure<br />

your subnet to 169.254.120.2, Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0 If this does not correct<br />

the problem, call Enphase Customer Support at 877-797-4743.<br />

Home Screen<br />

Once the browser has successfully connected with the <strong>Envoy</strong>, the following screen is<br />

displayed in the browser. This home screen provides a system overview and shows<br />

the current status of the inverters that have been identified by this <strong>Envoy</strong>. From this<br />

screen, you can access other screens in the interface.<br />
