How to upgrade an M6A/M10A with Wi-Fi cloud monitoring

Equipment:

-Wi-Fi Comms card for M6A/M10A

-Windows laptop (if old FW is present on inverter) (download DSSV5.4.2 and latest COMM and DSP)

-RS-485 to USB converter

Step 1. Check the FW currently on the device

Press any button while inverter is on the homepage

Scroll down to “Inverter Information” and press “ENT”

 

 

The COMM FW must be a minimum of 1.25 for operation of a Wi-Fi module. If the inverter has older FW please use a USB-RS-485 cable to update the inverter via our DSS software using a Windows laptop.

Delta recommends to update the latest the DSP and COMM FW on the inverter (see latest FW HERE), if the COMM FW is not out of date the update can be done via Wi-Fi using a Windows laptop and DSS or via Android/IOS using the MyDeltaSolar APP.

Step 2. Ensuring that the FW is now up to date for operation of the Wi-Fi module, switch the inverter off by the standard shutdown procedure.
