Getting started

Connect your inverter brands

Victron

  1. Log in to the VRM Portal and open Preferences from your profile menu.
  2. Go to Integrations, then Access tokens, and create a token named "HelioFleet".
  3. In HelioFleet, open Connections, choose Victron and paste the token.

The token only grants read access and can be revoked from VRM at any time.

Sunsynk

  1. Make sure each inverter is already added to your Sunsynk account.
  2. In HelioFleet, open Connections and choose Sunsynk.
  3. Enter the email and password you use for the Sunsynk app or web portal.

Every plant linked to that account is picked up automatically.

Deye

  1. Get an App ID and App secret from the Deye Cloud developer portal.
  2. In HelioFleet, open Connections and choose Deye.
  3. Enter your Deye Cloud login plus the App ID and App secret.

App IDs are issued per integration, not per user, so one pair covers your account.

WatchPower

  1. Make sure each inverter is already added to your WatchPower account.
  2. In HelioFleet, open Connections and choose WatchPower.
  3. Enter the login you use for the WatchPower mobile app.

WatchPower inverters do not meter the grid, so grid power will not show for these sites.

Logins for brand accounts are encrypted and only used by our servers to read your sites' data.

Common questions

Troubleshooting

A site shows as offline

HelioFleet shows a site as offline when the inverter has not reported to its brand cloud. Check the inverter's Wi-Fi or data logger on site, then check the same site in the brand's own app. If it is online there but not in HelioFleet, the saved login for that brand may have changed: update it under Connections.

The numbers differ from the brand's app

Each brand reports power and energy slightly differently, and their apps round and refresh at different times. HelioFleet converts every brand to the same units so sites can be compared. Small differences are normal; open the inverter page and use the raw readings view to compare field by field.

A connection says the login failed

The password or token for that brand account was changed or revoked. Open Connections, choose the brand and update the login. Your sites and history are kept while you fix it.

A customer cannot sign in

Send them a new invite from the client's page, and ask them to check their spam folder. Invites expire, so an old link will not work. If they have forgotten their password, email us and we will reset it.

Setting up alerts and who receives them

Open Alerts to choose which faults raise an alert, such as an offline inverter or a low battery, and who gets the email. Each staff member can turn alert emails on or off for themselves.

Monthly reports

Reports for the month before are created on the 1st of each month. You can open any report from the Reports page, check it and email it to the customer.

Billing and invoices

You are billed per site, at a rate that drops as your fleet grows. Invoices are emailed to your account owner. For billing questions, or to change to annual billing, email us.

Closing your account or exporting data

Email us from the account owner's address. You can export your data for 30 days after your account closes; after that it is deleted as described in our privacy policy.
