Step by Step Guide: Connecting a Sungrow Inverter to Wifi

Step 1: Download the iSolarCloud App

  • Download the iSolarCloud app from the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android).

Step 2: Connect to the Inverter’s Wi-Fi

  • On your phone, go to Wi-Fi settings.

  • Look for a network that starts with "SG-" (e.g., SG-xxxxxxxx).

  • Connect to it. If asked for a password, try 12345678 (or check the label on the inverter).

Step 3: Set Up Wi-Fi Connection via the App

  • Open the iSolarCloud app.

  • Log in or create a new account if you don’t have one yet.

  • Tap Device Configuration > Add Device > WLAN Settings.

  • Choose your home Wi-Fi network from the list and enter your Wi-Fi password.

Step 4: Complete the Setup

  • After connecting, the inverter will automatically link to your Wi-Fi.

  • You should see your system online through the iSolarCloud app within a few minutes.


A few reminders:

  • Make sure your Wi-Fi router is close enough to the inverter for a strong signal.

  • Sungrow inverters usually connect to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks only (not 5GHz).

  • If you run into any issues, try rebooting your inverter and router.
