What does these message received from WatchPower software mean

[Paul Coetzee]

Hi,

I hope you will be able to assist me in the questions below.

Below is a screen dump of the messages I am referring to.

I would really appreciate your reply on this issue.

1) Is there a list of all the messages the WatchPower  Software can issue?

2) What does each of these messages mean?

3) What action does each of these messages require from me?

4) Which messages (E.g "communication lost" and "communication restored") I don't have to worry about ? 

 

[Chris Hobson]

The communication lost and restore is a log of communication between the Axpert and WatchPower being lost and restored. Overload alarm is just that Axpert drawing more than 4kW.

Good Day

Can someone please assist with the correct settings for the mail function. 

I tried different settings with the help of google but to no avail. 

Thank you

port should be 587 or try 465 if it fails.Also you will need to enable "Allow less secure apps" in security settings of account.

if it still fails, try typing complete username i.e. [email protected]

This will not work if you have 2 Factor Authentication setup on your account, in that case better create account for inverter only rather than using existing account

edit:

link for allowing less secure apps, you should be signed in.

Thank you for the info.

I've tried all the suggestions but still keep on getting the "test failed" result.

Will keep on exploring.

Hi SnoopySniper

As far as I know, the SMTP (sending) server on gmail requires ssl/tls encryption, is there any option for that, I think ssl is port 465 and if using tls then port 587. Who is your internet ISP? Maybe you could use their smtp server rather. So maybe look at these

As long as your use your isp's smtp server it should work.
