The plant menu allows changes to be made in the number of inverters being monitored and
the radio frequency being used. The following three items are found in the Plant menu:
Sunny Boy Detection: This will initiate another detection routine in which any of the inverters
on the same frequency or “group” and within range of the Sunny Beam will be detected and
displayed. This routine allows inverters to be added or removed to the list of inverters
monitored by the Sunny Beam. The Sunny Beam can monitor up to 4 inverters at a time. For
monitoring more, see Group below for information on setting up groups of inverters.
Exclude Sunny Boys: Choose this option manually to remove any undesired inverters from the
Sunny Beam’s list. Or, anytime after a detection of inverters is completed, this option is
automatically available and any undesired inverters may also be excluded at that time.
Group: The Group screen allows selection of the operating Group. The Sunny Beam comes set
from the factory on Group number 1. This setting will work for most applications. In the event
of interference, it is sometimes possible to cure it by changing the Group number. It is also
possible to monitor another “group” of inverters using this function. For example, if a system
had 8 Sunny Boy inverters, each with a wireless piggy-back card, the first group of 4 would
