6.2.3 Deactivating Overnight Shutdown for Wind Inverters
If you use wind inverters, you must deactivate the overnight shutdown of the Sunny Beam. As a result,
the Sunny Beam also queries data from the wind inverters at night. The overnight shutdown is
activated by default.
1. Select Settings > Data query > Overnight shutdown.
2. To deactivate overnight shutdown, deactivate the selection field "active".
Tip: To prevent electric discharge of the accumulator with deactivated overnight shutdown,
connect the Sunny Beam to the power supply at night (section 8.1.1).
6.2.4 Setting Plant Power in kWp
If no value for plant power in kWp was set when the Sunny Beam was commissioned, you can
subsequently set the value. The default setting is 0.00 kWp.
