Among these, Owner Account can bind the current plant and the owner account. There're two methods:

  • Method 1: Bind via owner email. If an owner has already had an account, directly select the account from the dropdown menu and the email will be automatically filled in. If an owner hasn't had an account, enter his/her email, the system will automatically create an account and bind the account and the current plant together.
  • Method 2: Bind via QR code. As shown below, show the generated QR code to the owner to scan.

[!Note]

  • After you entered the address, the system will automatically import the country/region and time zone.
  • PV capacity refers to the sum of capacity of all PV panels. Battery capacity refers to the sum of capacity of all batteries.

Step 2: Add device. You can select to enter a device manually by entering the registration number or import devices in batch in the format of Excel. Click "Complete" to finish plant adding. You will see the plant in the plant list.

[!Note]You must use the device registration number for Manually Add or Batch Import, not SN. For an inverter, the registration number actually refers to its communication module Pocket Dongle's registration number. You find it at the body of the Pocket Dongle.
