Dashboard overview
The dashboard is the main screen after you sign in and link your inverter. It shows live and historical data for the inverter you have selected.
Layout
Section titled “Layout”- Top — Time range selector (Today, Yesterday, Week, Month, Year, or a custom date) and date navigation (arrows or picker) where relevant.
