Growatt ShineLan-X
Quick Installation Guideline

Step1. Electrical connection

1. Pass the network cable through the following components (1-2-3) from left to right;
2. One side of the network cable is connected to the RJ45 port of the ShineLan-X (the connection is successful until hearing a click ), and the other side is linked to the router’s  LAN port;
3. Screw the components (3-2-1) tightly of the terminal to the inverter from right to left in sequence.
   
4. Rotate the USB cover of the photovoltaic device counterclockwise
5. Rotate the datalogger locker on the upper, make sure the triangle is on the front side and in the middle
6. Connect the data logger to the inverter USB port, make sure the triangle is on the front side, press the locker, and rotate clockwise until it is tightened.
   

Step2. Turn on the inverter and configure the IP of the datalogger

After the installation of ShineLan-X is completed, turn on the inverter and configure the IP of the datalogger.
A. If the router’s DHCP function is turned on, use dynamic IP, no need to configure IP(the new router’s DHCP the function is turned on by default), skip Step 2;
B. When customers need to use static IP in some public places such as schools and enterprises, configure it as follows:

1. Prepare a router whose DHCP function is turned on, link the ShineLan-X to the datalogger;
2. Enter the router’s built-in interface and find the dynamic IP address of the datalogger ShineLan-X, shown as below.
   
3. Open the browser, enter the dynamic IP address of the datalogger ShineLan-X in the browser address bar, and enter the built-in interface of the datalogger (account:  admin, password: admin).
   
4. Enter the network Setting’ page, turn off the DHCP enable of the datalogger, and enter the static IP, gateway, mask, DNS. Then click to save.
   
5. Enter the ‘Datalogger Setting’ page, enable the reboot function, and click Save.
   The static IP setting of the datalogger is successful.
   Note: If you have forgotten the static IP you have set before, there are two ways to reset the static IP address:
   a) Long press the reset button of the datalogger ShineLan-X until all the three LEDs are always on, then release the button. After restoring the factory settings, you can reset the static IP according to Step 2.
   b) The computer and the datalogger ShineLan-X are directly connected through a network cable. Set the computer IP address to 192.168.0.2, the mask is 255.255.255.0,  and the gateway is 192.168.0.1, Then open the computer browser and enter 192.168.0.254 in the browser address bar to enter the built-in interface settings of the datalogger.
   

Step3. Check connection status

When installing the ShineLan-X for the first time, the blue LED flashes, indicating that ShineLan-X communicates normally with an inverter, routers, and servers.
