manual of the communication product).
2. Commission the inverter with Bluetooth Piggy-Back (see inverter installation manual).
3. If the inverter with Bluetooth Piggy-Back has a different password than the plant, change the
password of the inverter with Bluetooth Piggy-Back to the plant password using the Sunny

Using the Bluetooth Piggy-Back in France
In France there a restriction for maximum Bluetooth transmission power.
If you use the inverter with Bluetooth Piggy-Back in France, the French standard must have been
set on the inverter, so the Bluetooth Piggy-Back will reduce its transmission power. You can see
the default standard to which the inverter was set on the inverter's type label and on the
included supplementary document with the factory settings.
• If the inverter has not been configured for the French standard, set the French standard
using the Sunny Explorer software, for example (see Sunny Explorer software,
"Settings > Grid monitoring > Country standard").
