On a 12v 860Watt PV panel system do the panels need grounding to earth?

The charger/inverter is charged by the mains.

The panels supply some 12v power for the batteries. 

The inverter only supplies 240v to a non-mains circuit.

No panel earth point indicated on the inverter charger.

The inverter/charger relays the, mains/battery power supply earth, depending on the supply.

I have an earthing rod ready...

No.

Unless the manufactures instructions say so.

And that would almost certainly be the inverters MI.
