9.7 Saving the Configuration in a File
You can save the current configuration of the inverter in a file. You can use this file as a data
backup for this inverter and then import this file into this inverter again or another inverter to
configure the inverter. When saving, only the device parameters will be saved, not the network
configuration or any passwords.
Procedure:
1. Call up the inverter user interface (see Section 8.1, page 34).
2. Log in as Installer or User.
3. Select the menu System Configuration.
4. Select [Settings].
☑ A context menu opens.
5. In the context menu, select [Saving the configuration in a file].
6. Follow the instructions in the dialog.
9.8 Adopting a Configuration from a File
To configure the inverter, you can adopt the configuration from a file. To be able to do this, you
must first save the configuration of another inverter in a file (see Section 9.7 "Saving the
Configuration in a File", page 44).
Requirements:
☐ The SMA Grid Guard code must be available (see "Application for SMA Grid Guard Code"
at www.SMA-Solar.com).
☐ Changes to grid-relevant parameters must be approved by the responsible grid operator.
Procedure:
1. Call up the inverter user interface (see Section 8.1, page 34).
2. Log in as Installer.
3. Select the menu System Configuration.
4. Select [Settings].
☑ A context menu opens.
5. In the context menu, select [Adopting the configuration from a file].
6. Follow the instructions in the dialog.
9.9 Updating the Firmware
You can manually update the inverter firmware. To do this, proceed as follows.
Tip: With PV systems that are registered in Sunny Portal, the inverter firmware is usually updated
automatically. In certain circumstances, a manual update of the inverter firmware is, however,
necessary.
