4.1 Operation Indicator 

Standby (night) 

 

 

all LEDs are off  

 

 

The Sunny Boy is in “Standby” mode. The input voltage is too low 

(V

PV 

< 120 V) for supplying the Sunny Boy control system with enough power. 

 

Initialization 

 

 

all LEDs are on  

 

The Sunny Boy control system is initializing. 

The string voltage to the inverter is between approx. 120 V and 240 V. The supply is suf-

ficient for the system control and not quite sufficient for feeding to the grid. Data trans-

mission is not possible. 

NOTE:

 In some seldom cases (bad weather, low solar radiation) the LEDs 

can go on all at once and off again. This “blinking” results from the fact

that the incoming radiation is not high enough for the Sunny Boy to keep it

stable. Note: This is not a malfunction!
