10 BTPB-IEN112112 Installation Guide
Proceed as follows to install the communication interface for the above mentioned inverters of type
SB, SMC, WB, and SWR.
1. In the case of inverters of type SWR detach the existing display, if necessary.
2. If necessary, detach the installed communication interface.
3. Removing the resistors from inverters of the type SWR is not necessary.
4. Plug the communication interface to the left of the
interface port. The far right pins on the lower short
row of pins remain free.
5. Set the NetID (see section 4.3 ”Setting the
Bluetooth Communication” (page 10)).
6. Close the inverter as described in the inverter
manual.
☑ The communication interface is installed.
4.3 Setting the Bluetooth
Communication
The inverter can communicate with a communication
device and can be linked to other inverters via Bluetooth.
To ensure the devices communicate with each other and
are interlinked, they have to be set to the same NetID.
DANGER!
Risk of lethal electric shock when opening the inverter.
Open the inverter as described in the inverter manual.
In the case of inverters of type SWR the fitted display can block the interface port. You can
either install a display or a communication interface.
NetID
PV systems with SMA Bluetooth operating in close proximity to one another are
distinguished by their individual NetID. SMA Solar Technology Bluetooth devices
recognize your Bluetooth PV System via an assigned NetID. The NetID can be a number
from 1 to 9 or a letter from A to F. NetID 1 is not possible for Sunny Beam with Bluetooth.
