At Fronius we are constantly striving to improve our products and to adapt them to your needs as much as possible.

If you have purchased a Fronius Warranty or Fronius Solar.web Premium, your invoice is automatically calculated based on the personal details you have provided us with.

You can delete your user account at any time. In order to delete your user account, open the user settings section of your profile and select "Delete account". Please be aware that all generation and consumption data from your system will be permanently deleted. If you have purchased a Fronius Warranty or Fronius Solar.web Premium, we are legally required to continue to store your personal details.

• Have you already added your PV system to Fronius Solar.web? If not, please download the Fronius Solar.start app from the relevant app store. You will then be guided through the process step by step. Alternatively, go to Fronius Solar.web and select "Add your PV system" on the main screen. As soon as your PV system has been added and is sending data to Fronius Solar.web, the device will also be displayed and you will then be able to register it.
• If you have already added your PV system, it is possible that you have been assigned guest rights for monitoring your system. The inverters associated with a PV system are only displayed if you have supervisor or owner rights.

The PV system should automatically be added to Solar.web while commissioning the inverter. If that is not the case and you want to add the system manually afterwards, you will find all the information in this video

Yes. You can change your details at any time in Fronius Solar.web – simply go to the "User settings" section of your user account. Please note that by agreeing to the general terms and conditions of Fronius Solar.web, you confirmed that your details were correct. Providing incorrect information represents a breach of the general terms and conditions. For this reason, we ask that you always check your information carefully and ensure it is up-to-date. 

The general terms and conditions for Fronius Solar.web can be found here.

Your user account and completed orders contain confidential data. For security reasons, and to prevent unauthorised persons gaining access to this data, we only communicate with our users using the e-mail address verified during the registration process. This ensures that we only communicate with the owner of the user account. If you no longer have access to this e-mail address, please send us a copy of your valid ID. This allows us to check that you have the right to access this data.

The data sources for your PV system can be found on the display of your inverter. If you launch the wireless hotspot from the menu, a number, beginning with 239 or 240 is displayed: this is your Datalogger ID (datamanager). Please mention that you'll need your V.Code, if you have a Gen24/Tauro inverter installed. You can find it on your inverters name plate next to your serial number. 

Assigning "Guest" rights is most useful for displaying the data from the PV system without the ability to change important parameters of the PV system unintentionally. If a different Fronius Solar.web user account should also have access to the settings, we recommend assigning "Supervisor" rights.

Please contact our customer services. You can get in touch with us using our contact form. As this involves confidential data, and because changing the e-mail address grants you full access to the associated PV system, we ask that you attach a scan of your valid ID in this case. 

With Fronius Solar.web you always have an ideal overview of all the important parameters of your PV system. Whether past or current values, you can get more information about your PV production, your consumption and much more with just one click. This is just a fraction of the wide range of information that the multifaceted monitoring and analysis portal Fronius Solar.Web offers. In this video our experts demonstrate how you can get the perfect overview on your smartphone or laptop at any time and from anywhere and which analysis functions can be helpful for you.

With the release of the firmware 1.34 and the release of the feature in Solar.web, settings can be changed on GEN24s, Vertos and Tauros. When clicking on “Device settings” on the page “Settings” / “Components”, the WebUI of the selected device is opened and gives the owner and supervisors of a system the possibility to change all parameters easily and securely. Every time someone accesses a device, it is noted in the message center in Solar.web and the owner of the system can see, which user did some modifications to ensure transparency.

If you don´t want your installer to be able to configure your devices remotely, the permission can be removed from the installer through the permission management in Solar.web. Either permissions are removed completely from the affected user or the user is given the role “Guest”. That way he can still monitor the system, but not perform any changes in Solar.web or on the devices.If you don´t want anybody to be able to access the device remotely, the connection can be deactivated on the inverter under “Communication”, “Solar.web” and “Remote Configuration”.

For inverters which have the same prerequisites it is possible to use the collective warranty extension. It allows to add a warranty selection for multiple products simultaneously to the basket.

The warranty terms and conditions as well as the options for the extension depend on the country of installation. You will therefore be able to purchase the warranty extension types offered for the relevant country of installation.

Depending on the market conditions and the economic situation, we have optimized the prices for the warranty extensions for each country. This enables us to offer you the warranty extension for your Fronius inverter at the best possible price.

Please mention that although Fronius Ohmpilot and Smart Meter own a serial number, these devices aren’t approved for the registration in the Solar.web portal. This is due to the fact that neither a warranty extension nor a warranty certificate are available. Your invoice is proof of warranty. 
Since the BYD battery isn’t a Fronius product, it can’t be registered in the Solar.web portal.

Yes, multiple Wattpilots can be added to a PV system in Solar.web.

For Wattpilot data to be displayed in Solar.web, ensure the following:

• The Wattpilot (as well as your inverter) must be added to your PV system in Solar.web in the tab "Settings" - "Components". If this tab is not visible, please ask your installer to assign you "Owner" or "Supervisor" rights for your PV system.
• The Wattpilot requires firmware version 36.0 or higher. You can update your Wattpilot in the Solar.wattpilot app in the tab "Internet".
• The Wattpilot needs to be paired with your inverter. Go to the tab "Settings" - "Cost Optimization" in the Solar.wattpilot app to pair your Wattpilot with an inverter.
• If the paired inverter is a GEN24 or Tauro, firmware version 1.23 or higher is required. You can update your inverter in Solar.web in the tab "Settings" - "Components".
• Both the Wattpilot and the paired inverter must be connected to the internet.

If the Wattpilot has no internet connection (e.g. due to weak WLAN), live and history data is not available in Solar.web. History data will not be restored when the Wattpilot reconnects to the internet.Furthermore, Wattpilot data is only shown if the Wattpilot is paired with an inverter of the same PV system in Solar.web. For example, no data is displayed in Solar.web for periods when the Wattpilot Go is used on the go.

When the Wattpilot is handed over to the new owner, the device has to be deleted from the original pv system in Solar.web and has to be added to the new one.
