SMA Solar Technology AG Operating the Sunny Island
Technical Description SI2012_2224-TEN082311 109
The Sunny Island's firmware expects device-specific data in the root directory of the MMC/SD card.
This data consists of a new firmware, parameters and measurement data.
The Sunny Island uses the MMC/SD card in the Sunny Control 1 to store and load device
parameters.
In addition, the Sunny Island supports the acquisition of measurement data on the MMC/SD card.
It saves these data in a special file. Among other things, the file contains a header, time stamp, date
and data type. There are two different types of log data:
• Measurement data (saved cyclically)
• Events and failures (only saved when they occur)
The Sunny Island supports measurement data storage of data from the fields:
• Battery
•Inverter
• System
• External source and
•Loads

The "BOOTEX.LOG" file is not necessarily on the card. It is created depending on the
operating system used (e.g. WindowsXP or Windows2000).
