6.1 Detecting a Free NetID
The NetID serves to distinguish PV plants with SMA Bluetooth in close proximity of each another.
If another plant with SMA Bluetooth is located within 1.640 t. (500 m) of your plant, you will have
to detect a free NetID. This way you will prevent setting a NetID for your plant that is already set for
by another plant. If no other plant is located within 1.640 ft. (500 m), you may choose any NetID for
your plant.
Detecting a free NetID using the Sunny Explorer software (see Sunny Explorer help).
6.2 Setting the NetID
Requirement:
A free Net ID has been detected (see section 6.1).
Use a screwdriver to turn the arrow of the rotary

a width of
