Configuring the System with the SMA 360° App
Qualified person
A country data set must be set for feed-in operation
To ensure the inverter starts feed-in operation during initial commissioning, a country data set must be set (e.g., via the product commissioning wizard in the SMA 360 app or on the user interface of the product, or via a System Manger).
If no country data set is set, then feed-in operation will be stopped. This state is signaled by the green and red LEDs flashing simultaneously.
The inverter will automatically start feed-in operation only after the inverter configuration is completed.
The country data set must be set correctly.
If you select a country data set which is not valid for your country and purpose, it can cause a disturbance in the PV system and lead to problems with the grid operator. When selecting the country data set, you must always observe the locally applicable standards and directives as well as the properties of the PV system (e.g. PV system size, grid-connection point).
- If you are not sure which standards and directives are valid for your country or purpose, contact the grid operator.
The grid type must be set correctly
If you select the wrong grid type, it can cause a disturbance in the PV system and lead to problems with the grid operator.
Requirements:
The inverter must be switched on.
The latest firmware must be installed on all system components.
An user account for Sunny Portal must already exist.
Procedure:
- Download the SMA 360° App from the App Store or Play Store.
- Open the SMA 360° App and login with the SMA ID.
- For systems with multiple inverters using Wi-Fi, navigate to Setup > Network setup to connect subordinate inverters to the inverter's Wi-Fi network. Follow the instructions in the SMA 360° app and scan the QR code on the cover of the inverter when the app prompts you to do so. This needs to be performed for each subordinate inverter within the system.
- To start the commissioning wizard, go to Setup > Commissioning.
- Follow the SMA 360° app instructions and scan the QR code on the inverter's cover when prompted to configure it as the System Manager.
- Select the Inverter as System Manager in the device settings, then continue with the app instructions.
