9.2.1 Registering Sunny WebBox in the Sunny Portal
1. Logging in to the user interface of the Sunny WebBox.
2. Select "WebBox > Settings > Data transmission" in the user interface.
3. Enter the name of your plant in the "Plant Name" field. Sunny Portal displays the plant name.
4. Select the transmission method in the "Interface" field. The transmission method depends on the
version of your Sunny WebBox.
5. Set the upload frequency (see section 10.6”Setting Data Upload” (page64)).
6. Select "Yes" in the "Use Sunny Portal" field.
7. Enter your e-mail address in the "Operator e-mail" field. Sunny Portal sends the access data to
this e-mail address.
8. Make a selection in the "Use Proxy server" field and, if necessary, enter the IP address and the
port of the proxy server in the "Proxy server address" field.
9. Make a selection in the "Use authentication" field.
10. Enter the data of your proxy server in the "User name" and "Password" fields.
11. Select [Save].
12. Select "WebBox > Info".
13. Select [Register] in the "Last Sunny Portal registration" field. The Sunny Portal password will be
sent to the entered e-mail address.
☑ The Sunny WebBox data transmission to Sunny Portal is configured.
On the "WebBox > Info" page, you can see when the Sunny WebBox last successfully transmitted
data.
The plant identifier is entered automatically.
In general, you do not have to change the preset number in the "Plant identifier" field. The
number is a unique plant identifier for Sunny Portal. If you have not yet registered at Sunny
Portal, the default plant identifier is automatically entered in Sunny Portal after data has
been successfully uploaded for the first time. Sunny Portal sends the access data to the e-
mail address you entered in the "Operator e-mail" field. You will then be registered at Sunny
Portal.
In case you have already registered at Sunny Portal with the same plant (which can be for
example the case when exchanging the data logger), you have to adjust the plant identifier
in the "Plant identifier" field, see section 9.2.3”Adjusting the Plant ID for Sunny Portal”
(page49).
"yes" Authentication is needed for the proxy server. Adjust further settings.
"no" Authentication is not needed for the proxy server. "User name" and
"Password" do not have to be entered. Continue with step 10.
