Commissioning Procedure
Commissioning an inverter that is captured in a communication device
When the inverter is captured in a communication device, the communication device (e.g.
SMA Data Manager) is the unit for configuring the total system. The configuration is
transferred to all inverters in the system. The system password assigned via the communication
device is also the password for the user interface of the inverter.
• Commission the inverter (see Section 7.2, page 45).
• The initial configuration of the inverter is made via the communication device. The
configuration is transferred to the inverter and the settings of the inverter are overwritten.
• Deactivate the Webconnect function of the inverter via the Sunny Portal. This prevents
unnecessary connection attempts of the inverter with Sunny Portal.
This section describes the commissioning procedure and gives an overview of the steps you must
perform in the prescribed order.
Procedure
See
1.
Commission the inverter.
2.
Establish a connection to the user interface of the inverter.
There are various connection options to choose from for
this:
• Direct connection via WLAN
• Direct connection via Ethernet
• Connection via WLAN in the local network
• Connection via Ethernet in the local network
3.
Log into the user interface.
4.
Select the inverter configuration option. Please note that
the SMA Grid Guard code for changing the grid-relevant
parameters must be available after completion of the first
ten feed-in hours or installation assistant (see "Application
for the SMA Grid Guard code" available at www.SMA-
Solar.com).
5.
Ensure that the country data set has been configured cor-
rectly.
6.
For PV systems in Italy or Dubai: Start the self-test.
7.
Make further inverter settings as needed.
