SSID, IP address and necessary passwords
• SSID in WLAN: SMA[serial number] (e.g. SMA0123456789)
• Standard WLAN password (usable until completion of the configuration by means of the
installation assistant or prior to the end of the first tenfeed-in hours): SMA12345
• Device-specific WLAN password (usable for initial configuration to completion of the first
tenfeed-in hours): see WPA2-PSK on the type label of the inverter or on the back of the
manual included in the delivery
• Standard IP address for a direct connection via WLAN outside of a local network:
192.168.12.3
Importing and exporting files with end devices having an iOS operating
system is not possible.
For technical reasons, importing and exporting files (e.g. importing an inverter configuration,
saving the current inverter configuration or exporting events and parameters) is not possible
with mobile end devices having an iOS operating system.
• Use an end device that does not have an iOS operating system for importing and
exporting files.
The procedure can be different depending on the end devices. If the procedure described does not
apply to your end device, establish the direct connection via WLAN as described in the manual of
your end device.
Procedure:
1. If your end device has a WPS function:
• Activate the WPS function on the inverter. To do this, tap twice on the enclosure lid of the
Connection Unit.
☑ The blue LED flashes quickly for approx. two minutes. The WPS function is active
during this time.
• Activate the WPS on your end device.
☑ The connection with your end device will be established automatically. It can take
up to 20seconds for this connection to be established.
2. If your end device has not a WPS function:
• Search for WLAN networks with your end device.
• Select the SSID of the inverter SMA[serial number] in the list with the found WLAN
networks.
• Enter the inverter WLAN password. Within the first tenfeed-in hours and prior to
completing the configuration by means of the installation assistant, you must use the
standard WLAN password SMA12345. After the first tenfeed-in hours or after
completing the configuration by means of the installation assistant, you must use the
device-specific WLAN password (WPA2-PSK) of the inverter. You find the WLAN
password (WPA2-PSK) on the type label.
3. Enter the IP address 192.168.12.3 or, if your device supports mDNS services, SMA[serial
number].local or https://SMA[serial number] in the address bar of the web browser and
press the enter key.
