How to

When you want to see only panels connected to a specific inverter

Starting state: You are logged in to PATCH, The dashboard screen is open (Filter tab is visible on the left)

1. Expand the Energy section in the Filter tab to see three sub-groups: Top 10 (daily energy), Caution panels (<70% energy), and Abnormal panels (<30% energy). In the Inverter section, expand an inverter to reveal its strings (1st through 10th). Click a string to highlight only that string's panels on the map.
2. Expand the Anomaly Detection section to see anomalies by type (e.g., output degradation, shading). Click an item to highlight the affected panels.
3. Toggle Interpolation Mode from the three-dot menu. When enabled, missing data points are interpolated so the chart displays continuously.
4. For plants with MLPE devices, click Command to send control commands to the devices. In the command dialog, select the target and command, then send.

Expected result

Selecting an inverter shows only its panels. Clicking an anomaly highlights the related panels. Enabling interpolation fills gaps in the chart.

If it does not work

• If the Filter tab is not visible, click the left edge of the dashboard or refresh the browser (F5).
• If there is no Command button, the plant does not have MLPE devices registered.
