8.4 Displaying the Event Report
The event report provides a log of the various events that occur in both the Sunny WebBox and the
devices connected to the Sunny WebBox. For example, information on file uploads to Sunny Portal
or errors, warnings or other information regarding the connected devices can be stored in the event
report by the Sunny WebBox. To display the events of connected devices, the Sunny WebBox
accesses the memory of those devices.
1. If you have not configured the settings for retrieving data from the device memory,
see Section 10.9 "Retrieving or Requesting Data from the Device Memory" (page 63).
2. Select "WebBox > Events" on the user interface.
☑ The Sunny WebBox displays the page containing the event report on the user interface.
The Sunny WebBox can display the last 500 events in the report.
The displayed parameters depend on the selected device
The displayed parameters depend on the device you have selected and can vary
significantly between the product families (e.g. Sunny Boy and Sunny Central).
It is possible to display the events of connected devices only for SMA inverters of
the type Sunny Backup.
The Sunny WebBox (version 1.52 or higher) currently allows the events of connected
devices for SMA inverters of the type Sunny Backup to be displayed.
