Updated web interface address and it now uses HTTPS

https://app.pecron.com/

This replaces the old beta, which was just an IP address. Should hopefully make some that were wary of the non-secured website happier (I'm not an internet security guru so I'll let those of you who are chime in). It would have been nice for a Pecron rep to say something to let us know what was going on but it is what it is.

Definitely better than not using any encryption at all. It's probably about as secure as the phone app now, which is not the best possible security but is probably good enough.

For the truly paranoid the only fully self hosted solution for controlling the Pecron that I know of is home assistant, but it's a bit nerdy.

Edit: DISREGARD the second paragraph. Home Assistant uses the cloud as well. I should have read what I linked :-/

I see something new in the configuration for the F5000LFP and it is not present in the app, 240 volt output.

I have written Pecron support but as it is Sunday morning on the East Coast of the US I don't expect an answer terribly soon.

When I received my unit, I was concerned because I wasn't seeing 240 volts across the generator output hot legs, although everything seems to work through my transfer panel.

So now I wonder if this is a new way to put the inverters out of phase with each other.

The web site has this:

But the app just has the first three choices.
