8.1.2 Calling Up the Inverter User Interface in the Local
Network
If the inverter has been integrated into a local network, you can call up the inverter user interface as
described in the following:
New IP address with integration in a local network
The inverter receives a new IP address when it is integrated into the local network. Depending
on the type of configuration, the new IP address will be assigned automatically by the DHCP
server (router) or manually by you. Upon completion of the configuration, the inverter is only
reachable via this new IP address or the alternative addresses.
Inverter access addresses:
• Generally applicable access address, e.g. for android products: IP address manually
assigned or assigned by the DHCP server (router) (identification via
SMA Connection Assist, network scanner software or router manual).
• Alternative access address for Apple products: SMA[serial number].local (e.g.
SMA2130019815.local)
• Alternative access address for certain Windows products: SMA[serial number] (e.g.
SMA2130019815)
Requirements:
☐ Depending on the type of communication, a smartphone or tablet PC with WLAN interface or
a computer with Ethernet connection or WLAN interface must be available.
☐ The computer, the tablet PC or the smartphone must be connected with the local network, e.g.
via a router.
☐ One of the following web browsers must be installed: Firefox (as of version 32), Internet
Explorer (as of version 10), Safari (as of version 6) or Google Chrome (as of version 32).
☐ The inverter must be connected via WLAN or Ethernet to the local network, e.g. via a router.
☐ The inverter access address must be known.
☐ The personal SMA Grid Guard code of the Installer must be available for the changing of
grid-relevant settings after completion of the first ten operating hours (see certificate
"Application for SMA Grid Guard Code" at www.SMA-Solar.com).
File export via Safari web browser not possible
When using the Safari web browser, the exporting of files (e.g. saving the current inverter
configuration or exporting events) is not possible for technical reasons.
• Use a different supported web browser.
Procedure:
1. Enter the inverter access address in the address line of the web browser and press the enter
key.
☑ The login page of the user interface opens.
2. Log in as Installer or User.
