2.1 Intended Use
The Speedwire/Webconnect data module is a Speedwire communication interface with
Webconnect function for inverters.
Speedwire is a cable-based type of communication based on the Ethernet standard and the
communication protocol SMA Data2+. This enables inverter-optimized 10/100 Mbit data
transmission between Speedwire devices in PV systems. The Webconnect function enables direct data
transmission between the inverters of a small-scale PV system and the Internet portal Sunny Portal
without any additional communication device and for a maximum of four inverters per Sunny Portal
system. For this, a Speedwire/Webconnect data module must be installed in each of the inverters.
You can access your Sunny Portal system from any computer with an Internet connection.
The inverter still complies with the standard after the product has been installed.
For safety reasons, it is not permitted to modify the product or install components that are not explicitly
recommended or distributed by SMA Solar Technology AG for this product.
The type label must remain permanently attached to the product.
Use the Speedwire/Webconnect data module only in accordance with the enclosed documentation
and with the local standards and directives. Any other application may cause personal injury or
property damage.
The enclosed documentation is an integral part of this product.
• Read and observe the documentation.
• Keep the documentation in a convenient place for future reference.
2.2 Safety Precautions
This section contains safety precautions that must be observed at all times when working on or with
the product. To prevent personal injury and property damage and to ensure long-term operation of
the product, read this section carefully and follow all safety precautions at all times.
Danger to life due to electric shock when opening the inverter
High voltages are present in the conductive components of the inverter. Touching live components
results in death or serious injury.
• Prior to performing any work on the inverter, always disconnect the inverter from all voltage
sources on the AC and DC sides (see inverter installation manual). Observe the waiting time
to allow the capacitors to discharge.
8SWWEBCONDM-IA-en-16Installation Manual
SMA Solar Technology AG2 Safety
Risk of burns due to hot enclosure parts
Some parts of the inverter enclosure can get hot during operation. Touching these enclosure parts
can result in burn injuries.
• Do not touch any parts other than the lower enclosure lid of the inverter during operation.
Damage to the inverter due to electrostatic discharge
The internal components of the inverter can be irreparably damaged by electrostatic discharge.
• Ground yourself before touching any inverter component.
2.3 Operating Instructions
High costs possible due to inappropriate Internet tariffs
When using the Webconnect function, a constant Internet connection is required.
Depending on the quality of the Internet connection, the data transfer volume for an inverter is
between 150 MB and 550 MB per month. When using the system overview in Sunny Portal with
live data display, there is an additional data volume of 600 kB per hour.
• Since there is a permanent Internet connection to Sunny Portal, time-based billing systems
should be avoided. High costs could be incurred. SMA Solar Technology AG recommends
using an Internet flat rate.
If UMTS is used, VoIP is required
If UMTS is used, VoIP (Voice over IP) is required to use the Webconnect function.
• Ensure that the UMTS provider also provides the VoIP service.

The cable length and cable quality affect the signal strength in the Speedwire network. Observe the
following cable requirements and the information on cable laying.
Interference in data transmission due to unshielded energy cables
If unshielded power cables are used, they generate an electromagnetic field during operation
which may induce interference in network cables during data transmission.
• When laying network cables, observe the following minimum clearances to unshielded
energy cables:
– For installation without separating strip: at least 200 mm
– For installation with aluminum separating strip: at least 100 mm
– For installation with steel separating strip: at least 50 mm

☐ PIC and RID of the Speedwire/Webconnect data module must be available.
☐ Your computer must have an Internet connection.
☐ JavaScript must be enabled in the web browser.

Installation ManualSWWEBCONDM-IA-en-1623
6 CommissioningSMA Solar Technology AG
Small-scale PV system with Speedwire/Webconnect data module cannot be
combined with other systems
If you already have a system with a different communication device, e.g. Sunny WebBox, in
Sunny Portal, you will still need to create a separate small-scale PV system with Speedwire/
Webconnect data module. It is not possible to combine the Speedwire/Webconnect data
modul e and other communicatio n devices within one system in Sunny Portal. Sunny Portal treats
the existing system and the new small-scale PV system with Speedwire/Webconnect data
module as independent systems.
• Create a new small-scale PV system with Speedwire/Webconnect data module.
Replacing the Speedwire/Webconnect data module in the inverter
If you have replaced the Speedwire/Webconnect data module in the inverter with a new
Speedwire/Webconnect data module, the PIC and the RID of the inverter change. Therefore,
you must also replace the inverter using the PV System Setup Assistant in Sunny Portal (see the
Sunny Portal user manual). In the PV System Setup Assistant, you must enter the PIC and the RID
of the new Speedwire/Webconnect data module.
Starting the PV System Setup Assistant in Sunny Portal
The PV System Setup Assistant is a step-by-step guide to the processes required for user registration
and the registration of your system in Sunny Portal
Procedure:
