Check first
- Was the power sequence right? Both platforms power ON AC-first (grid breaker before PV DC before battery). A battery-first habit from other brands stalls boots here.
- Is grid actually present at the inverter’s AC terminals? Meter it — upstream MCB, loose termination or a dead phase kills the boot before any menu exists.
- What exactly does the display say? Note the precise message/code before touching anything — it decides the branch below.
The one-restart rule. For a fault message: power off in the correct order, wait
5 minutes, restart once. If the same fault returns, collect the evidence and escalate —
repeated power-cycling destroys the diagnostic trail and fixes nothing.
Escalate when
- Any internal-fault code survives the one restart.
- The display stays dark with verified AC at the terminals — do not open covers; that is service territory.
- A boot fault follows physical damage, water entry or a burnt smell — isolate and stand down per Battery Safety if packs are involved.
