6.2.2 Current Status And Forecast
The SunnyHomeManager continuously logs the energy generated by the PV system. The
SunnyHomeManager also receives location-based weather forecasts via the Internet. Based on
this information, the SunnyHomeManager creates a PV yield forecast for the PV system.
The data on the generated energy can only be displayed fully if at least the following energy meter
types are connected to the SunnyHomeManager:
• Feed-in meter
• Purchased electricity meter
The SunnyHomeManager receives the PV generation data via the connected SMA inverters or via
an optionally connected PV production meter.
To query forecast information, you must fill in the following input fields on the System properties
page in SunnyPortal:
• Latitude
• Longitude
• Nominal PV system power (necessary for the correct power forecast)
If one of the three entries is missing, either the weather symbols are not displayed, the power
forecast is not present, or it is incorrect.
