Ideally suited for online monitoring of small PV systems with up to four inverters, Webconnect provides free access to Sunny Portal and Sunny Places, the community portal. It’s simple to use, requiring only Internet access and a DSL router. Following the simple installation of the factory-integrated inverter interface, Webconnect commissioning is plug-and-play. Once configured, key system data can be accessed and displayed in a clear format whenever needed. Furthermore, Sunny Places now offers PV system operators the opportunity to exchange ideas with other users and compare their systems to others in the community.

Simply use private Internet access

Online

A DSL broadband connection is required to use the Webconnect functions. Under these conditions, continuous data exchange with the Sunny Portal and Sunny Places makes it possible to visualize the high-resolution data.

• A packet-oriented mobile radio data transmission (e.g., LTE, UMTS, HSPA, EDGE or GPRS) is recommended only if the mobile provider offers an appropriate flat rate with support of VoIP (Voice over IP).
• Since GSM routers use a time-based billing structure, they should never be used with the Webconnect functionality.
