Activating or Deactivating SMA ArcFix

Deactivating SMA ArcFix
Procedure:
• Select the parameter AFCI switched on or Parameter.Inverter.AfciIsOn and set to No.
Activating SMA ArcFix with Operation Inhibition
When the arc-fault circuit interrupter is active and an electric arc is detected, the inverter interrupts
the feed-in operation and an operation inhibition occurs. The operation inhibition must be reset
manually if the inverter is to feed into the grid again (see Section 11.3, page 88).
Procedure:
• Select the parameter AFCI switched on or Parameter.Inverter.AfciIsOn and set to Yes.
• Set the parameter Manual restart after arc fault detection or
Parameter.Operation.ManRstr.ManRstrAFCI to On.
Activating SMA ArcFix without Operation Inhibition
When the arc-fault circuit interrupter without operation inhibition is active and an electric arc is
detected, the inverter interrupts the feed-in operation. No operation inhibition occurs. After a
waiting period, the inverter starts automatically and checks whether the electric arc is still present. If
the electric arc is still present, the inverter disconnects from the grid again and the process is
repeated.
• Select the parameter AFCI switched on or Parameter.Inverter.AfciIsOn and set to Yes.
• Set the parameter Manual restart after arc fault detection or
Parameter.Operation.ManRstr.ManRstrAFCI to Off.

Creating a Backup File

As soon as the product and all devices are in operation and your system is optimally configured,
SMA Solar Technology AG recommends creating a backup file. If you replace your product or
reset your existing product to the default settings, the backup file can be used to transfer
configuration information. The backup file includes the following system and device configuration
data for your product:
• Grid management services
• FTP
• Network
• Sensors
• Analog and digital inputs
• Analog and digital outputs
• Energy meter
• Sunny Portal setting
• Self-defined Modbus profiles
