7.5 Setting the date/time
This function can be accessed via Settings – Date/
Time. If you have selected the correct time zone and
an Internet connection is available, you can auto-
matically synchronise the time of the Solar Inverter
with a time server with the NTP button.
Alternatively you can transfer the PC time to the
Solar Inverter.
Please proceed with caution for time settings, as
they directly affect data logging. For example, if you
set the time back by 1 hour, then the existing data
for the last hour will be overwritten.
7.6 Software update
The software update is used to extend the func-
tionality of your Solar Inverter. The communication
software (responsible for LCD display, interfaces,
communication and Sunways Browser) and the
control software or the monitoring software can be
updated.
1. Select «Settings – Software Update». This func-
tion requires entry of a password (default:
******** = 8 times star key or the password you
entered previously).
2. The upper screen section shows the current
software versions. If a new version is available
on our website (www.sunways.de), you can
download the file and load it via the Sunways
Browser. Select the file on your hard disk via the
«Browse...» button and confirm with OK.
3. Select a software package.
4. Click Update to copy the software update to the
Solar Inverter.
5. Use the COM Reset button to restart the commu-
nication unit and load the new software.
Alternatively the system update may be distributed
to the slaves via the software master. Please con-
tact our Technical Hotline for further information.
The phone number is provided on the back of the
manual.
