8.2.1 Notes
You can update the firmware of the devices in your PV plant via Sunny WebBox. The Sunny WebBox
can be used to update the firmware of the following devices:
• SMA inverters with integrated Bluetooth:
– From Software Package 2.06: SB 3000TL-20/SB 4000TL-20/SB 5000TL-20 (SB = Sunny
Boy)

The device update can be performed online via the internet or locally via the SD card. Existing settings
of the Sunny WebBox and data from the PV plant remain available after the update procedure. In
order to always keep the firmware of the devices in your PV plant up to date, automatic device
firmware updates via the internet are recommended.
NOTICE
No updates are implemented for devices with a lock symbol ( )!
Devices with insufficient access rights (indicated by a lock symbol in the plant tree ( )) to
connect to the Sunny WebBox are not updated.
• If the access rights are insufficient, change the password of the device in question to
the plant password (see the Sunny WebBox User Manual).
Do not disconnect Sunny WebBox from the power grid during the update
process.
NOTICE
Sufficient DC input voltage is required to update the devices!
In some inverters, a device update is only possible from a certain DC input voltage. The DC
input voltage can be too low for a device update, depending on the time of the day,
weather situation or the status of the PV modules (e.g. covered by snow or leaves).
