  1. Hi zsde Yip, I had the same issue some time back when I tried to do an upgrade on the Datalogger. Upgrade failed and Datalogger showed only a red solid light and in the app it show's Lost. Fortunately my installer had a spare datalogger which he replaced. Never again will I do an upgrade I lost a couple of days data. I am contemplation on getting Solar assistant and dumping the Shineserver monitoring
  2. Hi elihelou Thanks for posting the original question. I had the same issue on both my SPF 5000 inverters where the WiFi dongle was flashing green. I believe this is a connectivity issue with the ShineServer. Also not the first time it happened. Previous time my technician rebooted the complete system. This time I just removed the WiFi dongles and reinserted them after about 1 minute and the connection restored (Blue flashing light). Its quite frustrating as the stats gets lost and especially during load shedding, I cannot see the state of battery and usage. Anyway, you gave me some pointers to look for.
  3. Your dashboard looks so cool. Since Growatt decided to remove the History option for the shineServer web interface my monthly stats are lost. I still don't understand why they removed it.... Apparently its only available on the installers dashboard and that doesn't make sense at all 🤬 Anyway, will have to play around with the API's and see if I can get to the historic data... Has anybody got a javascript or python script to retrieve the historic data? I have 2 x SPF 5000ES inverters running independently each on 1 phase of a 3 phase system. 2 x GCL E-KwBe 5.6kWh battery's. 16 x 420W Canadion PV panels.
