2 Safety
2.1 Appropriate usage
The Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth is a data logger that records, logs and makes available the data
of a PV plant via a user interface via the integrated web server. Additionally the Sunny WebBox with
Bluetooth can be used for remote diagnostics and the configuration of connected devices in a PV
plant via the computer.
The Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth allows all data of the connected devices to be continually
recorded and evaluated. During operation, the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth records all values of
the PV plant every 2 minutes. Values of currently opened parameter groups are updated every 20
seconds. If the connection between the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth and the PV plant is broken, the
Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth recreates the connection automatically, as soon as this is possible.
The Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth is integrated into the Bluetooth plant as a network forming device
(Master device). Network forming devices are principally communication products which form the
structure of the Bluetooth PV plant, collect, evaluate and process data.
The number of devices which the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth can manage depends on the number
of master devices in the Bluetooth network with the same NetID. If the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth
is the only Master in the Bluetooth network, the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth can manage up to 50
devices. If 2 masters are present in the Bluetooth network (e.g. Sunny Explorer or the Sunny Beam
with Bluetooth), a maximum of 25 devices can be managed by the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth.
A maximum of one Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth is allowed in a Bluetooth network with the same
NetID. Additional information about SMA Bluetooth Wireless technology can be found in the
download section at www.SMA.de/en.
The Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth is only to be operated using the supplied plug-in power supply
and in the voltage range intended for this.
Do not use the data from Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth for billing purposes. Additional costs can
occur through the use of the internet.
The Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth is only to be used with original accessories or recommended
accessories approved by SMA Solar Technology AG.
Only use the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth exclusively for the purposes described in the manual.
Carefully read the documentation belonging to the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth before you
commission the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth.
Also refer to the technical data of the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth.

5 Mounting
5.1 Mounting / Installation Location Requirements
Please note the following information on the mounting / installation location of the Sunny WebBox:
• The Sunny WebBox is only suitable for installation in enclosed spaces.
• The ambient temperature must remain between –20 °C and +65 °C.
• Protect the Sunny WebBox from dust, wet conditions, corrosive substances and vapors.
• Observe the minimum clearances to walls, other
devices or objects as shown in the diagram in order
to guarantee sufficient heat dissipation.
• Do not cover the Sunny WebBox.
• The distance from the Sunny WebBox to the
inverters may not be greater than the maximum
permitted distance of the corresponding plant
communication type. Note the specifications in the
respective sections.
• During installation, make sure there is optimal
reception for the transmission paths.
• Certain ambient conditions can reduce the
connection quality and data transmission speed between Bluetooth devices.
– Mount or install the Bluetooth device at a distance of at least 1 m from the following devices:
–WLAN devices
– Microwave ovens
– Other devices that use the 2.4 GHz frequency band

5.2 Determining the Mounting / Installation Location for Bluetooth
PV Plants
5.2.1 Information on SMA Bluetooth
The devices in your PV system can communicate and network with a communication device via
Bluetooth. To ensure the devices communicate with each other and are interlinked, they have to be
set to the same NetID. The NetID is a unique identification number of your PV plant. Thus, the NetID
distinguishes your PV plant from other PV plants.
5.2.2 Determining the Mounting / Installation Location
Before you mount the Sunny WebBox, you should determine the connection quality at the mounting
/ installation location of the Sunny WebBox to your PV plant. The connection quality can be checked
using the Sunny Explorer or the Sunny Beam with Bluetooth. Refer to the user manual of the relevant
device. You can change the connection quality by changing the distance between the Bluetooth
devices.
5.2.3 Extension of the Bluetooth Network Using an SMA Bluetooth
Repeater
The SMA Bluetooth Repeater can help you extend the wireless range of your Bluetooth network. An
SMA Bluetooth Repeater installed on the range border of the Bluetooth network transmits the data
traffic of this network in its own radio range. This technology enables the construction of Bluetooth
networks which cover a much larger area than would be possible using the Sunny WebBox alone.
Determining a NetID for your PV plant.
If your PV plant does not have a NetID yet, you must first determine a free NetID using the
Sunny Explorer software or using the Sunny Beam with Bluetooth and then set this in the
devices of your PV plant.
NetID 1 is currently not supported by the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth.
A direct connection to an individual SMA Bluetooth device via NetID 1 is currently only
possible with the Sunny Explorer software or the Sunny Beam with Bluetooth.
Change the NetID of the Sunny WebBox with Bluetooth to the NetID of your PV plant
(NetID 2 to NetID F).

4. Screw in the screws and leave a 6 mm clearance between the screw head and the wall.
5. Hang the Sunny WebBox onto the screws.
☑ The Sunny WebBox is now mounted on the wall.
5.4 Mounting the Sunny WebBox on the Top-Hat Rail
1. Determine the mounting location taking into consideration the mounting / installation location
requirements.
2. Hook the Sunny WebBox with both lower retainers into the lower edge of the top-hat rail.
3. Press the Sunny WebBox upwards and snap it into the upper brackets.
☑ The Sunny WebBox is now mounted on the top-hat rail.
