11.1 Registering the ClusterController in SunnyPortal
No combination of ClusterController and SunnyWebBox in one SunnyPortal
system
In a SunnyPortal system, the ClusterController must not be used in combination with the
SunnyWebBox.
• If there is already a SunnyWebBox in the SunnyPortal system where you want to
integrate the ClusterController, delete the SunnyWebBox from the SunnyPortal system
before registering the ClusterController (see user manual of the ClusterController in
SunnyPortal).
Procedure:
1. Select the ClusterController in the system tree and select the menu Settings in the device
menu.
2. If there is a proxy server in your LAN, make the proxy settings on the user interface of the
ClusterController (see Section17.2, page87). This ensures that the ClusterController can
establish a connection to SunnyPortal via the proxy server.
3. Select the parameter group SunnyPortal > Basic settings.
4. Select [Edit].
5. Activate data transmission to SunnyPortal. Select the entry Yes in the drop-down list Use
SunnyPortal.
6. Make the user settings in the group User settings:
• In the field E-mail, enter the e-mail address to which SunnyPortal is to send the access
data.
☑ The system identifier is automatically entered in the field ID of PV system. Together
with the e-mail address and the system name, the system identifier is a unique
identifier of the system in SunnyPortal.
• In the field PV system name, enter the name under which the system is to be displayed
in SunnyPortal.
7. Select [Save].
8. Perform the registration in SunnyPortal. Select [Execute] in the field Register in the group
Status and Actions.
☑ The ClusterController synchronizes the system time with SunnyPortal and carries out the
registration. OK is displayed in the field Result of the last registration and SunnyPortal
sends the access data to the specified e-mail address.
☑ The registration of the other devices in the system is performed automatically.
☑ The result of the registration attempt is logged in the event log (see Section9.1, page51).
✖ The registration has failed?
• Rectify the error (see Section18.2, page96).
