2 DescriptionZigBee  Module  is  a  wireless  device  used  to  enable  the  communication  between inverter and data logger. The Shine Webbox and Shine Pano serve as the data logger.3
3  Setting the ZigBee ID and Channel of     the Data LoggerIn  order  to  adopt  the  ZigBee  wireless  communication  method,  the  ZigBee  ID  and Channel  of  the  data  logger  should  be  configured  first.  Start  the  web  browser  and enter 192.168.1.230 in the address bar, then you can set the ZigBee ID and Channel via the integrated server of the data logger.4Note:network segment, then it is available to get access into the integrated server of the data  logger. As  to more details, please refer to  the  user  manual of  data  logger  e.g. Shine Webbox User Manual.  Only  the  IP  address  of  the  data  logger  and  the  accessing  PC  are  in  the  same
51. Set ZigBee ID. In “parameter” field, select “Zigbee_ID”, enter ZigBee ID within the range between 1000 and 9999.2.  Set  ZigBee  channel.  In  “parameter”  field,  select  “Zigbee_channel”,  enter  the ZigBee channel within the range between 11 and 25.3.  If  the  parameters  of  data  logger  about  the  ZigBee  configuration  have  been modified, the parameters of the ZigBee Module have to be also modified.
4 Setting the ZigBee Module61.  Copy  the  folder  “V53E  Setup”  from  the  CD  to  personal  computer.  Double  click “V53E Setup” → “Support” “ZConfigureV53E.exe”.2.  Connect  the  ZigBee  Module  with  PC  via  the  configuration  Box.  ZigBee  Module corresponds to the side of Configuration Box printed with “Module”, and the RS232 port corresponds to another side of Configuration Box printed with “RS-232”. → 3. Operate the “ZConfigureV53E.exe”, as following figure.
74.  Right  click  “My  computer” → choose  “Manage” “Device  Manager”“Ports (COM & LPT)”.  →     →  5. Choose the same “COM port” with device manager.6. Single-click “connect”. If the indicator light turns to green, the connection state is OK.COM Port
7. Select Zigbee Radio Channel. The range of channel is 11-25. The Radio Channel of ZigBee  Module  shoud  be  set  as  the  same  value  of  “Zigbee_channel”  configured  in the data logger.8
8.  Set PAN  ID.  The “PAN  ID”  of  ZigBee  Module  should  be same as  the  “Zigbee_ID” configured in the data logger. If not, the connection would fail. Enter two values in the input box of PAN ID (e.g. 33 55). Single-click “SETTING”, then click “READ”. If it works, the success dialog box will pop up. If not, please set again.9
9. After setting, click on “Module Restart”, and then click on “connect”. If PAN ID is still the pre-set value, the configuration is OK. If not, please set again. Note:  If  you  have  already  set  6  ZigBee  Modules,  one  of  the  6  Modules  should  be power-on, and then you can set another 6 ZigBee Modules.10(1)(2)
5 Installation of ZigBee Module1. Plug the ZigBee Module to inverter via Rs232.The RS232 port of Growatt inverter has two specifications.If  the  RS232  port  is  compliant  with  the  specification  (1),  please  turn  on  the  DIP switch, then  plug the ZigBee Module to the inverter directly via the RS232 and lock screw.RS-232(1)(2)RS-23211If the RS232 port is compliant with the specification (2), please pry open the rubber plug in the waterproof cushion, then plug the ZigBee Module to the inverter and lock screw.
2.  Open the  “Record” interface  of the  data logger. If  the  inverter  corresponding to the ZigBee Module has shown in the list, the installation is OK. 12
1.  When  set  PAN  ID,  if  the  dialog  box  displays  “Setting  New  PAN  ID  Failed”,  the setting fails. Please click on “Module  Restart”  →“Connect”,  and  then reset  PAN  ID (refer to chapter4, step 3-7).2. When read PAN ID, if the value box displays “FF FE”, the setting fails. Please click on “Module Restart” → “Connect”, and then reset PAN ID (refer to chapter4, step 3-7).As an alternative method, you could change the value of the PAN ID and channel, then reset the data logger and ZigBee Module.3.  As  to  the  same  one  inverter,  either  wireless  method  or  wired  method  could  be chosen as a monitoring scheme. If not, the data logger couldn’t search inverters well.6 FAQ13
