Adding Virtual Loads

You can add virtual loads to a system with SMA Data Manager, Sunny Home Manager 2.0 or SMA inverters powered by ennexOS. A virtual load uses the energy and power values of an energy meter. For this purpose, an energy meter that has not yet been assigned must be assigned to the virtual load.

Requirements:

  • An SMA Data Manager, a Sunny Home Manager 2.0 or an SMA inverter powered by ennexOS must be installed in the system.

  • All devices in the local network must be in operation and connected to the Sunny Portal via an Internet router.

Procedure:

  1. Log into Sunny Portal.
  2. Select system.
  3. Select the menu Configuration.
  4. Select [Device management] in the context menu.
  5. In the energy meter row, click the button.
  6. Select [Configure as load].
  7. The system setup assistant opens.
  8. Follow the steps of the system setup assistant and confirm with [Save].
