8. Enable the option Create a new PV system and enter the required information in the text field PV system
properties.
9. In the field PV system name enter a name for your system. (In this document, the PV system is called
SunnyHomeManager system.)
10. Enter a PC system password in the field Password (see Section17.2, page117).
The system password applies for all devices of a system connected via Speedwire and is the same as the device
password for the user group Installer.
- If the standard password 1111 is still set on all devices for the user group Installer, enter a new system
password.
- If a different uniform password has already been set on all devices, enter this password as the system password.
- If a uniform password has not been set on all devices, set a uniform password for the user group Installer and
enter this password in the system setup assistant as the system password.

18. On the Meter configuration page, select the required meter depending on the installation in your house. By
default, the integrated meter of the SunnyHomeManager is used as a grid-supply and feed-in meter and the
internal measurement of the connected SMA inverters is used for PV generation. Therefore, no additional meter is
required.
19. Select the entry Internal Energy Meter in the Purchased Electricity and Grid feed-in dropdown-list.
20. Select the entry No energy meter in the PV Generation drop-down list.
If inverters from other manufacturers are also installed in the PV system, an Energy Meter must be inserted
between them. Only in this case you must select the entry SMAEnergyMeter xxx in the drop-down list. Here,
xxx is the placeholder for the SMAEnergyMeter serial number. If there are several SMAEnergyMeters in the
PV system, select the required SMAEnergyMeter. The generation power of the PV and hybrid inverters is only
measured via this selected energy meter. This means that any combination of PV and hybrid inverters can be used.
21. Click on [Next].
22. On the page Extended PV system properties enter your PV system data:
23. Enter the Nominal system power.
