However, the automatic Easy Installation option is recommended. After registering for the Solar-Log WEB "Classic 2nd Edition," you will receive an e-mail with the access data. The data has to be entered into the Solar-Log. The network settings, such as the router's IP address or GPRS modem configuration, should already be configured before proceeding with the next step. This can be accomplished in different ways, depending on the Solar-Log model.
