9.
Verify that the new IQ Gateway powers up.
BEST PRACTICE:
When powered up and connected for the first time, the IQ Gateway-
May retrieve an automatic upgrade from Enphase. This upgrade may take up to 15
minutes. During upgrade the IQ Gateway LEDs flash green sequentially.
WARNING!
Risk of Equipment Damage. Do not remove power from the IQ Gateway if
the IQ Gateway LEDs are flashing green sequentially. This indicates that a software
upgrade is in progress.

If possible, log in to Enlighten and add the IQ Gateway to the Activation for this system
by clicking
“
Add Another Envoy

Verify that the new IQ Gateway starts discovering microinverters within 20 minutes of
starting up. If necessary, use the Enlighten or Device Scan button to start a new device
scan during daylight hours. (See
“Initiate a New Scan for Microinverters” on page 24.)
NOTE
: If the old IQ Gateway has communicated to the microinverters on the same day
that the new replacement IQ Gateway is installed, the new IQ Gateway will be unable to
discover the microinverters. Contact Enphase at

Assess the power line communications by running a Communication Check from Enlighten
or the Installer Toolkit. If the communication check shows poor power line communications,
relocate the IQ Gateway closer to the Switchboard.
