8.1 Changing the Plant Time and Plant Password
Requirements:
• A computer with Bluetooth interface must be available.
• Sunny Explorer with software version 1.04 or higher must be installed on the computer.
• The plant must be logged in Sunny Explorer.
1. Change the standard plant password (see Sunny Explorer help). This will protect your plant
from unauthorized access.
2. Change the plant time (see Sunny Explorer help).
8.2 Activating and Setting SMA OptiTrac Global Peak
With partially shaded PV modules, you should activate SMA OptiTrac Global Peak and set the time
interval in which the inverter will optimise the MPP of the PV plant.
Requirements:
• A communication product that is appropriate for the type of communication used must be
available.
1. Access the user interface of the communication product and log in as an installer.
2. Select the parameter Power limit of the OptiTrac Global Peak and set to On.
3. Select the parameter Cycle time of the OptiTrac Global Peak algorithm and set the desired
time interval. Hint: The ideal time interval is normally six minutes. This value should only be
increased if the shading situation changes extremely slowly.
☑ The inverter optimises the MPP of the PV plant at the specified time interval.
