2 Safety SMA Solar Technology AG 2 Safety 2.1 Intended Use The Speedwire/Webconnect data module is a Speedwire communication interface with Webconnect function for inverters. Speedwire is a cable-based type of communication based on the Ethernet standard and the communication protocol SMA Data2+. This enables inverter-optimised 10/100 Mbit data transmission between Speedwire devices in PV plants. The Webconnect function enables data transmission between the inverters of a small plant and the Internet portal Sunny Portal. In Sunny Portal, a maximum of four inverters can be combined in a Sunny Portal plant. The Speedwire/Webconnect data module performs the following tasks: Set-up of a Speedwire network in small and large plants Direct data exchange with Sunny Portal: In small plants via a router with Internet connection In large plants via the Cluster Controller Data exchange with Sunny Explorer from version 1.05 The Speedwire/Webconnect data module is available as a retrofit kit or is pre-installed in the inverter. The Speedwire/Webconnect data module may only be installed in the following inverters with at least firmware version 2.53: Sunny Boy Sunny Tripower Windy Boy SB 2500TLST-21 SB 3000TLST-21 SB 3000TL-21 SB 3600TL-21 SB 4000TL-21 SB 5000TL-21 STP 8000TL-10 STP 10000TL-10 STP 12000TL-10 STP 15000TL-10 STP 15000TLEE-10 STP 15000TLHE-10 STP 17000TL-10 STP 20000TLEE-10 STP 20000TLHE-10 WB 3000TL-21 WB 3600TL-21 WB 4000TL-21 WB 5000TL-21 For information on the firmware update, refer to the Technical Description "Firmware Update with SD Card" at www.sma-solar.com.

SMA Solar Technology AG 2 Safety The enclosed documentation is an integral part of this product. Read and observe the documentation. Keep the documentation in a convenient place for future reference. Only use the Speedwire/Webconnect data module in accordance with the specifications provided in the enclosed documentation. Any other use may result in personal injury or property damage. 2.2 Qualifications of Skilled Persons The work described in this document must be performed by skilled persons only. Skilled persons must have the following qualifications: Training in the installation and commissioning of electrical devices and plants Knowledge of how to deal with the dangers and risks associated with installing and using electrical devices and plants Knowledge of all applicable standards and directives Knowledge of how an inverter works and is operated Knowledge of and adherence to this document and all safety precautions 2.3 Safety Precautions Electric Shock Lethal voltages are present in the conductive parts of the inverter. Prior to performing any work on the inverter, disconnect the inverter from any voltage sources on the AC and DC sides (see inverter installation manual). Observe the waiting time to allow the capacitors to discharge. Burn Hazards Some parts of the inverter enclosure can get hot during operation. During operation, touch the inverter on the enclosure lid only. Environmental Influences When closed and with the ESS plugged in, the inverter has the degree of protection IP65. The inverter is thus protected against dust intrusion and water penetration. Dust intrusion and water penetration can damage the inverter. When the ESS is not plugged in, the inverter must be protected against dust and water. Firmly plug the ESS in again after performing any work on the inverter. Electrostatic Discharge By touching electronic components, you can damage or even destroy the inverter through electrostatic discharge (ESD). Earth yourself before touching any inverter components. Installation Manual SWWEBCONDM-IA-en-11 9

2 Safety SMA Solar Technology AG 2.4 Operating Information Selecting a Suitable Internet Tariff for Small Plants When using the Webconnect function, a constant Internet connection is required. Depending on the quality of the Internet connection, the transmission volume for an inverter is between 150 MB and 550 MB per month. When using the plant overview in Sunny Portal with live data display, there is an additional data volume of 600 kb per hour. SMA Solar Technology AG recommends using an Internet flat rate. Since there is a constant Internet connection to Sunny Portal, time-based billing systems should be avoided. High costs could be incurred. 10 SWWEBCONDM-IA-en-11 Installation Manual

8 Troubleshooting SMA Solar Technology AG 8 Troubleshooting Problem The Speedwire/Webconnect data module cannot be accessed. Cause and corrective measures There is no Speedwire connection. Corrective measures: Ensure that all network cable plugs are inserted and locked. Ensure that all inverters in the plant are in operation. Make sure that the plant router is switched on. Make sure that the ribbon cable plug of the Speedwire/ Webconnect data module is correctly plugged into the centre connector strip in the inverter. The inverter does not recognise the Speedwire/Webconnect data module. Corrective measures: Perform firmware update on the inverter (see technical description "Firmware Update with SD Card" at www.sma-solar.com). Firewall or IP filter settings are not correct. Corrective measures: Adjust firewall or IP filter settings (see firewall or router manual). The Speedwire/Webconnect Data Module does not have a valid IP address. Corrective measures: Ensure that DHCP is activated in the router or assign a manual IP address to the Speedwire/Webconnect data module. 28 SWWEBCONDM-IA-en-11 Installation Manual
