Performing a software update

You can update the software of the inverter to a new version using the integrated USB interface. Use a FAT32-

formatted USB stick to do this. Do not use any storage media with an external power supply (for example:

an external hard disk).

NOTE

Ensure that the power supply of the AC and DC sides is active. It is only possible to update all

components of the inverter to the most current software version in this operating state.

CAUTION

Damage to the inverter
The update can fail if the power supply is interrupted during the update process. Parts of the

software or of the inverter itself can then be damaged.
