4.2 Interfaces and Functions
User interface for the monitoring and configuration of the inverter
The inverter is standard-equipped with an integrated web server, which provides a user interface for
configuring and monitoring the inverter. The inverter user interface can be called up via the web
browser if there is an existing WLAN or Ethernet connection to a computer, tablet PC or
smartphone.
Speedwire/Webconnect
The inverter is equipped with SMA Speedwire/Webconnect as standard. SMA Speedwire/
Webconnect is a type of communication based on the Ethernet standard. This enables inverter-
optimized 10/100 Mbit data transmission between Speedwire devices in PV systems. The
Webconnect function enables direct data transmission between the inverters of a small-scale plant
and the Sunny Portal web-based monitoring platform without an additional SMA communication
device and for a maximum of 4 inverters per Sunny Portal system. In large-scale PV power plants
with more than 4 inverters, there is the option of establishing data transmission between the
inverters and the Sunny Portal web-based monitoring platform via the SMAClusterController or to
distribute the inverters over several plants in the Sunny Portal. If there is an existing WLAN or
Ethernet connection, you can directly access your Sunny Portal system via the web browser on the
computer, tablet PC or smartphone.
