General
Country setup The "Country Setup" menu area is intended exclusively for installers/service
technicians from authorised specialist companies. The access code must be re-
quested from the national/international Fronius point of contact using an applic-
ation form.
CAUTION!
Risk due to unauthorised access.
Incorrectly set parameters can negatively influence the public grid and/or the in-
verter feeding energy into the grid, and lead to a loss of conformity with the
standard.
▶The parameters may only be adjusted by installers/service technicians from
authorised specialist companies.
▶Do not give the access code to third parties and/or unauthorised persons.
WARNING!
Danger due to unauthorised error analyses and repair work.
This can result in serious injury and damage to property.
▶Fault analyses and repair work on the photovoltaic system may only be car-
ried out by installers/service technicians from authorized specialist compan-
ies in accordance with national standards and guidelines.
The selected country setup for the respective country contains preset paramet-
ers according to the nationally applicable standards and requirements. Depend-
ing on local grid conditions and the specifications of the energy provider, adjust-
ments to the selected country setup may be necessary.
CAUTION!
Risk due to incorrectly set parameters.
Incorrectly set parameters can negatively influence the public grid and/or cause
faults and failures on the inverter, and lead to the loss of standard conformity.
▶The parameters may only be adjusted by installers/service technicians from
authorised specialist companies.
▶The parameters may only be adjusted if the energy provider permits or re-
quires this.
▶Only adjust the parameters taking into account the nationally applicable
standards and/or directives and the specifications of the energy provider.
Access code The "Country setup" menu area is intended exclusively for installers/service tech-

Country setup selection
Country setup
selection
Predefined setups can be selected in the "Country setup selection" menu. The
selected country setup for the respective country contains preset parameters
according to the nationally applicable standards and requirements. Depending
on local grid conditions and the specifications of the energy provider, adjust-
ments to the selected country setup may be necessary.
Parameter Description
"Country / Region" Selecting the respective country or region limits/
displays the available country setups for the invert-
er.
"Country setup" Displays the available setups per country/region.
A setup is a device configuration predefined by
Fronius. The selection of the country setup must be
made in consideration of the applicable standards
or in coordination with the grid operator.
"Rated Frequency (Hz)" The rated frequency is predetermined by the coun-
try setup selection. Changing this parameter affects
the stable operation of the inverter and is therefore
only permitted in consultation with Fronius.
"Rated Voltage (V)" The rated voltage is predetermined by the choice of
the country setup. Changing this parameter affects
the stable operation of the inverter and is therefore
only permitted in consultation with Fronius.

General
Startup and Re-
connection
These parameters can be used to set the grid monitoring times before the invert-
er is switched on.
For the set time, both the mains voltage and the grid frequency must be within
the permissible range before connection is allowed.
-The permissible range for the mains voltage is defined in the menu area "Grid
and system protection" → "Voltage" → "Startup and reconnection" (see
chapter Voltage).
-The permissible range for the grid frequency is defined in the menu area
"Grid and system protection " → " Frequency " → " Startup and reconnection"
(see chapter Frequency).
Parameter Range of values Description
"Grid Monitoring
Time Startup"
1 - 900 [s] Grid monitoring time before the invert-
er is switched on during a normal start-
up process in seconds (e.g. at sunrise).
Parameter Range of values Description
"Grid Monitoring
Time Reconnec-
tion"
1 - 900 [s] Grid monitoring time before the invert-
er is switched back on after a grid fault
(see table "Grid faults") in seconds
(e.g. if a fault occurs in the AC grid dur-
ing the day which causes the inverter to
shut down).
The following errors are defined by the inverter as grid errors for this function-
ality:
Name Description "StateCode"
name
"StateCode"
number
"Overvoltage" Mains voltage exceeds an
overvoltage limit ("Inner,
Middle, or Outer Limit
Overvoltage").
"AC voltage

"Undervoltage" Mains voltage falls below
an undervoltage limit ("In-
ner, Middle or Outer Limit
Undervoltage").
"AC voltage

1119
"Overfrequency" Grid frequency exceeds an
overfrequency limit ("In-
ner, Outer or Alternative
Limit Overfrequency").
"AC fre-
quency too

"Underfrequency" Grid frequency falls below
an underfrequency limit
("Inner, Outer or Alternat-
ive Limit Underfre-
quency").
