Symptoms:

The SolarEdge Monitoring Portal displays an error message indicating browser incompatibility, preventing access to system data and configuration settings. This affects remote monitoring of PV array output, battery state of charge (SOC), and grid interaction.

How It Works:

The SolarEdge Monitoring Portal relies on web-based communication between the user's browser and the SolarEdge cloud servers. Browser incompatibility arises from outdated browser versions failing to properly render the portal's JavaScript code or execute secure HTTPS connections. The portal utilizes standard HTTP/HTTPS protocols to display real-time and historical system performance data. Data logging from the SolarEdge inverter and energy storage system (ESS) depends on uninterrupted network connectivity, which is presented in the portal via user-friendly charts and graphs. Incorrect data interpretation can result from a non-compatible browser due to communication corruption.

Safety Warning:

Never attempt to modify the firmware of the SolarEdge inverter or gateway without proper authorization. Incorrect firmware updates can lead to system malfunction and void warranty. Protect your SolarEdge account with a strong, unique password and enable two-factor authentication to prevent unauthorized access to your system data and control settings. Avoid using public Wi-Fi networks to access sensitive system data.

Expert Tip:

Try accessing the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal using a different web browser or device to isolate the problem. Check the browser's developer console for JavaScript errors that may provide clues about the cause of the incompatibility.

Why This Happens:

Outdated web browser version lacking support for modern JavaScript standards.
Browser cache containing corrupted or outdated website data.
Browser extensions interfering with the portal's functionality.
Network connectivity issues preventing proper communication with SolarEdge servers.
Firewall restrictions blocking necessary HTTP/HTTPS traffic.
SolarEdge portal undergoing maintenance or experiencing server-side issues.

Solution:

1

Update your web browser to the latest version. Ensure compatibility with the SolarEdge Monitoring Portal.
2

Clear your browser's cache and cookies. This removes potentially corrupted data.
3

Disable browser extensions one by one to identify any conflicts with the portal.
4

Verify your internet connection and ensure you can access other websites.
5

Check the SolarEdge website or contact support to see if there are any known server issues or planned maintenance.
6

Restart the SolarEdge monitoring gateway via the app. This will re-establish the connection with the SolarEdge cloud.
7

Check the SolarEdge monitoring gateway firmware version using the SolarEdge app. Update if an update is available.

Prevention:

Regularly update your web browser and clear its cache
Monitor the SolarEdge website or app for announcements regarding planned maintenance or required browser updates
Periodically check the communication integrity between the inverter, gateway, and the monitoring portal
Perform routine checks on the firmware of your SolarEdge gateway
Confirm that data logging is consistently syncing to the cloud
