Solar.com (e.g. detailed descriptions of function or information on parameterization).
User interface for configuration and monitoring
The product is equipped as standard with an integrated webserver, which provides a user interface
for configuring and monitoring the product.
Once a connection has been established to a smart end device (e.g. laptop or tablet PC), the
product's user interface can be called up using a web browser.
Connected SMA products can be configured and commissioned via the user interface of the
product.
Wi-Fi access point
Depending on availability, the product is or is not equipped with a Wi-Fi interface. If the product is
equipped with the Wi-Fi interface, the Wi-Fi access point can be activated by tapping on the
product twice. The Wi-Fi access point is used to connect the product to an end device (e.g.
computer or tablet PC). This allows to carry out commissioning and configuration via direct Wi-Fi
connection on site regardless of the wired network.
SMASpeedwire
The product is equipped with SMASpeedwire as standard. SMASpeedwire is a type of
communication based on the Ethernet standard. SMASpeedwire is designed for a data transfer
rate of 100Mbps and enables optimum communication between Speedwire devices within
systems.
The products supports the encrypted system communication with SMA Speedwire Encrypted
Communication. In order to be able to use the Speedwire encryption in the system, all Speedwire
devices, except for the SMAEnergyMeter, must support the function SMA Speedwire Encrypted
Communication.
Dashboard
On the dashboard of the user interface, information on the product, the plant and its components is
displayed clearly and at a glance using widgets. The dashboard display can vary depending on
the system's functional scope and user rights.
Information, such as yield forecast, system section visualization and inverter comparison, are
available via the extended functions in SunnyPortal.
Modbus
The product is equipped with two Modbus interfaces. One interface can be controlled via Ethernet
(Modbus TCP) and the other interface via RS485 (Modbus RTU).
The Modbus interfaces have the following tasks:
• Remote query of measured values
• Setpoint specifications for system control
The Modbus interfaces differ in their function as:
• Modbus server and
• Modbus client.
