Sunny WebBox is
unable to connect via
DSL router.

The DSL routers of some
manufacturers may be
disconnected when the DSL
router switches to energy saving
mode.

Disable the energy saving mode of the
DSL router.
Use the "LAN 1" port of the DSL router
since the energy saving mode for this
port is usually disabled by default.

Sunny WebBox is
unable to detect
devices connected to
the RS485 bus.

and the baud rate are not
configured properly.

Make sure the data transmission
protocol and the baud rate for the

Make sure the RS485 cable is properly
connected to the Sunny WebBox. Check
all connections (see Section 6.9.2

Check the termination and signal biasing
of the RS485 communication bus (see
Section 6.9.2 "Connecting the Sunny
WebBox to the RS485 Communication
Bus" (page 34)).
