Symptoms:

The EcoFlow Smart Home Panel 2 indicates a 'Grid Connection Error' within the app. Grid power is unavailable for pass-through or battery charging. System is operating in off-grid mode despite available grid power.

How It Works:

The EcoFlow Smart Home Panel 2 relies on continuous monitoring of grid voltage and frequency via internal sensors. This data is processed by the internal microprocessor and transmitted to the EcoFlow cloud via Wi-Fi. The EMS compares the measured grid parameters to the configured thresholds. Deviations outside the acceptable range trigger the 'Grid Connection Error'. Cloud connectivity issues can prevent accurate error reporting and firmware updates.

Safety Warning:

Incorrect grid settings can lead to improper system operation and potential damage to connected appliances. Only authorized personnel should modify advanced configuration settings. Protect your EcoFlow account with a strong, unique password and enable two-factor authentication for enhanced security. Ensure that remote access to the system is properly secured and monitored to prevent unauthorized control.

Solution:

1

Verify the Wi-Fi connection status of the Smart Home Panel 2 in the EcoFlow app settings.
2

Check the grid voltage and frequency settings within the app. Ensure they match the local utility standards (e.g., 120V/60Hz in North America).
3

Force close and reopen the EcoFlow app to refresh the system status.
4

Perform a system reset by holding the reset button for 10 seconds, then reconfigure the Wi-Fi and grid settings.
5

Check for and install any available firmware updates for the Smart Home Panel 2 via the app.
6

If the error persists, temporarily connect the Smart Home Panel 2 to a different Wi-Fi network or hotspot to rule out network-specific issues.
7

Review the app logs or contact EcoFlow support providing screenshots of the error messages and system settings for further assistance.

Pro Tip:

Access the 'About' section in the EcoFlow app to view the current firmware version of the Smart Home Panel 2. Compare this version to the latest available version on the EcoFlow website or support forum to identify if an update is needed. Check the event logs in the app for a detailed history of grid connection status changes.

Possible Causes:

Incorrect Wi-Fi configuration on the Smart Home Panel 2.
Firmware bug causing false grid detection errors.
Cloud connectivity issues preventing status updates.
Incorrect grid voltage or frequency settings within the app.
Failure to properly complete the initial grid setup process within the app.
Intermittent Wi-Fi signal strength affecting data transmission.

Maintenance Tips:

Regularly check for firmware updates via the EcoFlow app and install them promptly
Monitor the Wi-Fi signal strength of the Smart Home Panel 2 to ensure a stable connection
Periodically review the system logs in the app for any recurring error messages or warnings
Ensure that the grid settings within the app remain accurate after any firmware updates or network changes
