6. Troubleshooting
Issue Possible Cause Solution
Power on failure
Reverse polarity contact
Check whether the positive and
negative polarities of the power
terminals are normally connected.
Renogy ONE Core damaged Contact our customer service
through renogy.com/contact-us/.
Failure to add devices
or smart accessories
The device is too far away from
Renogy ONE Core.
Move the device closer to Renogy
ONE Core.
zBluetooth: within 10 m in an open
environment.
zZigbee: within 50 m in an open
environment.
The smart accessories have been
connected to other devices.
Reset the smart accessories, and
redo adding. For details, see the user
manuals of specific accessories at
renogy.com/support/downloads.
The device or smart accessory is
incompatible with Renogy ONE
Core.
Use Renogy devices and smart
accessories.
Wi-Fi connection
failure
Unsupported Wi-Fi frequency band Ensure the Wi-Fi router is working on
the 2.4 GHz band.
WPA3 encryption Disable WPA3 encryption on the Wi-Fi
router.
Wrong password Enter the correct Wi-Fi SSID and
password.
Signal shielding
Ensure that there is no metal object
around Renogy ONE Core and the Wi-
Fi router because it may undermine
the wireless communication.
BT-1 or BT-2
communication failure Unstable communication quality
Unplug the BT-1 or BT-2 Bluetooth
module from the devices, and then
plug it to the devices again. Redo
device scanning on Renogy ONE Core
if necessary.
Laggy and
unresponsive
operations on the LCD
Improper power supply
Check the voltage of the power
supply. Make sure the voltage is 8V to
60V DC for the Power Port or 5V DC
for the Type-C port, and the voltage
should be stable.
Failure to find
Bluetooth devices
1. The Bluetooth device is powered
off.

Issue Possible Cause Solution
Inaccurate or delayed
RV level data on both
the Core and DC Home
The RV is not parked on a level
surface during initial installation of
Renogy ONE Core.
Park the RV on a level surface, and
redo RV leveling on Renogy ONE Core.
The bubble is not centered in the
bubble level when you install the
base.
Park the vehicle on a level surface,
rotate and remove the Core from its
base. Readjust the base to ensure the
bubble is centered before redoing RV
leveling on the Core.
The performance of the built-
in 6-axis sensor is affected by
environmental factors such as
temperature.
Install the Renogy ONE Core in a well-
ventilated location to prevent RV
leveling data discrepancies due to
extreme temperatures.
Inaccurate or delayed
RV level data on DC
Home
Renogy ONE Core is placed too
far away from your phone or there
are obstacles around Renogy ONE
Core to affect normal Bluetooth
communication between the Core
and your DC Home app.
zEnsure there is no metal object
around Renogy ONE Core.
zReinstall Renogy ONE Core at a
site which is within a range of 10
meters of the driver’s cabin.
