    It is standard, I have just put an old WiFi antenna on and it's giving me a much better range, thanks.

    Hi Geoff, Thank you very much for this information. I have now at last managed to connect the app to my inverter, however, I couldn't remember the first advanced start up answer so will have to check I get them right before I proceed any further. The signal from the inverter is quite weak so...
  • Post in thread: Solis RAI-3K-48ES-5G and Pylontech US5000 battery settings

    I don't know if you've managed to sort your problem yet? but if not you may find the series of videos on YouTube by "PK on Solis" useful, I believe his setup is similar although he has one of the multi line display inverters, mine's only got two but the menus appear very similar, just takes more...

    I have the same on my display. All my panels use micro inverters under the panels, some EnecSys and some Enphase. I was told that because I don't have a Solis String inverter for the the panels the app wouldn't be able to see the output from the panels. I believe removing this solar feed...

    Hi, my first post also. I have just programmed my RAI-3K-48ES-5G from the control panel to charge on economy 7 but as my inverter is in a loft space it would be far more convenient to use the Techview app. However, firstly I've noticed you need to be almost on top of the inverter to get a...
  • Post in thread: What would a standard for plugging solar panels directly into our homes look like?

    In the UK you can buy plug in solar kits, see link below. You can't just plug another mains source into the grid. For a start you will probably blow the device up and secondly the alternating cycles will be out of phase with the mains grid. Solar inverters are designed so that they won't...

    That's now true. When they first came out the kit came with a plug that I assume included a cut-out device. Now a fused spur is required, however I confess to fitting and wiring all 8 of my panels in myself to a fused spur.

    I haven't had those symptoms but the last few days I have often found I couldn't get any information on the phone app, it was as if I wasn't logged in but it said the system was online. The app worked OK yesterday and today seems OK so hopefully normal service has resumed.

    Sorry, only just seen this. No there is no other antenna apart from the WiFi dongle that connects to my internet. I'll look into this, I should have an antenna from an old router about somewhere that might do the job.

    Can I please ask; when the weather turns sunny and I don't want to charge at night, is it enough just to change "RUN" to "STOP" to prevent any timed modes taking control. Thanks.

    OK, I give up. Where on earth do you go in the Solis cloud app or logging in on a desktop PC to get to the battery charge timer settings? I didn't install my system, maybe it's a hidden feature only available to the installer?
