6 Configuration of the Inverter
6.1 Changing Operating Parameters
The operating parameters of the inverter are set to certain values by default. You can change the
operating parameters to optimize the performance of the inverter.
This section describes the basic procedure for changing operating parameters. Always change
operating parameters as described in this section. Some function-sensitive parameters can only be
viewed by qualified persons and can only be changed by qualified persons by entering the
personal SMA Grid Guard code.
No configuration via SunnyExplorer
SunnyExplorer does not support the configuration of inverters with their own user interface.
The inverter can be detected via SunnyExplorer, however it is expressly not recommended to
use SunnyExplorer to configure this inverter. SMA does not accept liability for missing or
incorrect data and possibly resulting yield losses.
• Use the user interface for the configuration of the inverter.
Requirements:
☐ The changes to the grid-relevant parameters must be approved by the grid operator.
☐ When changing grid-relevant parameters, the SMAGridGuardcode must be available (see
"Application for SMAGridGuard Code" at www.SMA-Solar.com).
Procedure:
1. Activate the user interface (see Section5.1, page20).
2. Log into the user interface (see Section5.2, page23).
3. Call up the menu Device Parameters.
4. Select [Edit parameters].
5. Log in using the SMA Grid Guard code to change those parameters designated by a lock
(only for installers):
• Select the menu User Settings (see Section5.3, page25).
• In the subsequent context menu, select [SMA GridGuard login].
• Enter the SMA Grid Guard code and select [Login].
6. Expand the parameter group that contains the parameter which is to be configured.
7. Change the desired parameters.
8. Select [Save all] to save the changes.
☑ The inverter parameters are set.
