What the symptom means

Diagnose the cause before replacing equipment.

Battery behavior depends on operating mode, reserve settings, software, gateway communication, solar production, household loads, and utility status. Diagnosis should review the whole energy system.

Service note: Battery equipment can remain energized during an outage. Leave covers closed and use the manufacturer-approved shutdown process only.

Common signs

  • Backup is unavailable during an outage
  • The battery or gateway repeatedly goes offline
  • Solar production is not charging the battery as expected

What a diagnosis should verify
