Preparing Bluetooth Communication SMA America, LLC14 BTPB_Ant-eng-IUS111410 Installation Guide6 Preparing Bluetooth Communication6.1 Detecting a Free NetIDThe NetID serves to distinguish PV plants with SMA Bluetooth in close proximity of each another. If another plant with SMA Bluetooth is located within 1.640 t. (500 m) of your plant, you will have to detect a free NetID. This way you will prevent setting a NetID for your plant that is already set for by another plant. If no other plant is located within 1.640 ft. (500 m), you may choose any NetID for your plant.• Detecting a free NetID using the Sunny Explorer software (see Sunny Explorer help).6.2 Setting the NetIDRequirement:• A free Net ID has been detected (see section 6.1).• Use a screwdriver to turn the arrow of the rotary switch to the plant's NetID. Use a screwdriver with a width of 1⁄8in. (2.5 mm).
