The Power Reducer Box
cannot download the
firmware update.

The SMA Update-Portal may be temporarily unavailable.

• Determine the cause of the error using the events logbook.
• If the SMA Update-Portal is temporarily unavailable, try the

firmware update again at a later time.

There is a fault in the local network:

• Ensure that the Power Reducer Box is correctly connected to the

local network (see Section 8.1.7).

• Check whether the network components, patch cables or plug

connectors are defective or damaged.

• Replace defective or damaged network components, patch

cables or plug connectors.

• Check whether the network settings of the individual network

components are correct. Adapt the network settings if required.

• Restart the Power Reducer Box. To do this, wait until the

"SD-CARD" LED is no longer flashing and switch off the
Power Reducer Box (see Section 11.1). Then reconnect the
plug-in power supply plug to the socket-outlet.

• If the problem persists, contact the network administrator.

LAN connection cannot be
displayed in Windows.

No network card driver (Ethernet card) is installed or the network card
is defective.
Corrective measures:

• Check the installation of the network adaptor in the device

manager and if necessary re-install the driver.

• Replace the defective network card with a new one.
