6.4 Changing the System Time
The date and time of a system constitute the system time.
When commissioning your system with a communication product (e.g., Sunny Explorer), the devices
of the system automatically assume the system time of the communication product. If additional
communication products are added to the system, the new communication products automatically
adopt the existing system time. Thus, all devices in the system are set to the same system time.
You will only need to change the system time in Sunny Explorer if it is not correct. If you change the
system time in a communication product, all inverters will immediately adopt the new system time.
Any further communication products in the system will adopt the system time only after some time has
elapsed (max. seven hours later).
Procedure:
1. In the menu bar, select Options > Set system time.
☑ The dialog box System time opens.
2. To adopt the operating system time on your computer as the system time, select
[Apply operating system time] and then [OK].

• Select the current date in the field Date.
• Select the current time in the field Time.
• In the drop-down list Time zone, select the time zone in which the system is located.
