6. Automatic plant identifier
In general, you do not have to change the preset number in the Plant identifier field. Sunny Portal uses this
number to uniquely identify your PV plant. If you have not yet registered the plant in Sunny Portal, the SC-COM
will automatically enter the preset plant identifier in Sunny Portal after the first successful data upload.
Sunny Portal will send the login data to the e-mail address you entered in the Operator e-mail field. The plant
is now registered in Sunny Portal.
• If the plant is already registered in Sunny Portal, update the plant identifier in the field Plant identifier
(see Section 7.3.2 "Adjusting the Plant Identifier for Sunny Portal", page 27).
