10.4 Configuring parameters
10.4.1 General Information about the Configuration of the Parameters
The following is required for configuration within the tab Parameters:
☐ You must have the user role Installer or PV System Administrator (see Section16.1, page114).
You can find the button [Edit] on the very bottom of the tab Parameters. It applies to all parameter settings of this
tab.
When selecting [Edit], you can change settings of different parameters and apply all changes at once with the button
[Save].
If you do not want to apply the changes, select [Cancel].
Both the buttons [Save] and [Cancel] are also on the very bottom of the tab.
Tip: Since all the changes are either applied with [Save] or dismissed with [Cancel] for the entire tab, it is
recommended to save each change made on this tab separately.
10.4.2 Entering the Feed-In Tariff and Electricity Tariff
The values for feed-in tariff and electricity tariff were already queried and possibly entered during the system
registration.
The question about self-consumption was also already asked when the system was being registered. Here you can
change your previous setting if necessary. You can either use the electricity generated by your PV system for self-
consumption or sell it , i.e., feed it into the utility grid. The Sunny Home Manager uses this information for cost saving
and takes the entered values into account during load control to optimize self-consumption.
The entered values affect:
• Recommended actions for manually switching on loads Current status and forecast > Forecast and
recommended action
• Load control via the SunnyHomeManager (either directly via the local network or via switching devices such as
a radio-controlled sockets or a relays)
Procedure:
1. Enter the feed-in tariff per kWh in the area Reimbursement in the text field Feed-In Tariff. Also select the
desired currency in the accompanying drop-down list.
