    NVR networking problem

    The initial screen image shows that the connection is not secure which can be an issue if your browser defaults to requiring https:// for connections. I use Mozilla Firefox with my own NVR (Annke) and that also shows as insecure but still connects ok provided the HTTPS settings are set to allow it.

    ShinePhone Flummoxed!

    The Growatt web app is the best / easiest to use if you need to change your inverter settings but you need to enter a password on the Settings panel (at the bottom) which uses the format growatt20240313 (for today) where the date changes with each new day. The default settings are to charge...

    Emails blocked..

    I have definitely not received any messages from VM that my NTLWORLD email addresses are being removed / retired etc. My main VM account is from my NTLWORLD email address and I don't have any @virginmedia email addresses! Mozilla Thunderbird is my main email client being used on both Windows &...

    How do I charge my battery during a Octopus Power Up

    Try logging in at https://server.growatt.com/ instead of using the ShinePhone app and use the Settings option from the My Photovoltaic Devices section at the bottom of the page which opens a new panel. When you have made any changes (use 24 hour clock), then enter the key (growattyyyymmdd) and...

    Another growatt question

    Make sure that you are using the correct password for the settings panel and not the one used to sign in to either the Growatt web page or the ShinePhone app. The settings password is growatt202310007 for changes made today, i.e. growattyyyymmdd and changes each day. Personally I find the web...

    Growatt BMS 113 error

    A status update on this annoying issue! I checked all the Battery to Battery comms cables using my RJ45 cable test tool and all looked ok except for one which initially showed some missing connections but then showed correctly after unplugging / replugging to clean the connector pins. I also...

    Growatt Server Problems

    I have been seeing 500 errors from the Growatt website over past days, and the ShinePhone app on Android has been unreliable for several weeks with wanting me to tick the Terms & Conditions box under the sign-in panel but having to constantly tap the screen before being accepted then not showing...
