8.1 Changing the Country Data Set Using a Communication Product

By default, the inverter is set to a specific country data set. You can see which country data set was
set by default at the factory on the type label and the supplementary sheet with the default settings
provided. If the default country data set of the inverter does not apply to your country or you want to
use the inverter in a backup or off-grid system, then you must change the country data set.
Requirements:
☐ A communication product that is appropriate for the type of communication used must be
available.
☐ The responsible grid operator must approve changes of grid-relevant parameters.
☐ An SMA Grid Guard code for changing the grid-relevant parameters must be available
(for application for the SMA Grid Guard code, see certificate "Application for SMA Grid Guard
Code" at www.SMA-Solar.com).
1. Access the user interface of the communication product.
2. Enter the SMA Grid Guard code.
3. Select the CntrySet or Set country standard parameter and set the required country data set.
4. Save setting.

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 optimize the MPP of the PV system.
Requirement:
☐ A communication product that is appropriate for the type of communication used must be
available.
Procedure:
1. Log in to the communication product as Installer.
2. Select the parameter MPPShdw.IsOn/OptiTrac Global Peak switched on and set to On.
3. Select the parameter MPPShdw.CycTms/Cycle time of the OptiTrac Global Peak
algorithm and set the required 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 optimizes the MPP of the PV system at the specified time interval.
