Windows Security
During the installation of a Window driver from SMA, you will receive a warning notice under
Windows stating that the manufacturer of the driver software could not be tested.
This warning notice appears when other providers' drivers are installed. It indicates that the
manufacturer's driver was not tested in the Microsoft "Windows Hardware Quality Labs
(WHQL)" laboratory.
SMA Solar Technology AG has checked the driver's function and approved the driver. You can
ignore Microsoft's recommendation that you stop installation and continue with the installation.
