Directly Controlling Loads

Requirements:

  • You must have the user role Installer or PV System Administrator ( > User Groups and User Rights).

  • The load must either support the data exchange protocol EEBUS or the data exchange protocol SEMP (see the manual of the load and technical information at www.SMA-Solar.com).

Procedure:

  1. Connect the load to the local network and carry out the manufacturer-specific registration (see manual of the load). The load must be located in the same local network as the Sunny Home Manager.
  2. EEBus devices must each be actively paired with the Sunny Home Manager ( > Coupling the heat pump via EEBus). This step is omitted for SEMP devices; they are identified automatically.
  3. The Sunny Home Manager detects the new load in the local network.
  4. The load is displayed on the page Device Overview > Overview of New Devices.
  5. Add the load to the the Sunny Home Manager system. In the case of loads with optional energy consumption, you can also set the priority and the maximum permissible energy costs.
  6. The new load is automatically displayed on the page Load Overview and Planning with the available information and setting options.
  7. Change the load name if necessary.
