The COMBOX is a great addition. It has a detailed seven day black box style recording of all the parameters, even if it not connected to the internet You can zoom in and see the battery voltage and current through the inverter. And you can read errors and warnings for each Schneider device. Plus, the COMBOX can record parameters to a SD card for later retrieval.
I usually also add a low cost router so I can just jump on the COMBOX when I arrive to see what’s been going on. When I do that I also set a fixed IP address on the COMBOX.
