SMA Sunny Boy 4000TL is a photovoltaic string inverter that converts direct current (DC) generated by photovoltaic panels into alternating current (AC) that can be fed into a public grid. It has a maximum DC input voltage of 550V and a maximum DC input current of 2 x 15 A. The nominal AC output voltage is 230 V, the nominal AC output frequency is 50/60 Hz, and the maximum AC output current is 17.5 A. The Sunny Boy 4000TL also features a graphic display that shows the current output, daily yield, total energy generated, and any failures.

The green LED is flashing: waiting for sufficient PV voltage
The green LED is illuminated: in operation
The red LED is illuminated: error: contact the installer and specify the event and the serial number.
The blue LED is illuminated: Sunny Boy is connected to a Bluetooth network and can communicate
with other devices that have the same network ID.
The Sunny Boy is not equipped with a calibrated meter. The display values may deviate from the actual values
and must not be used as a basis for invoicing. The Sunny Boy's measured values are required for the system
management and to control the current to be fed to the grid.
Bluetooth
Electronic Solar Switch
Power
Bluetooth is a radio technology that allows Sunny Boy devices and communication devices (e.g. Sunny
WebBox) to communicate with each other.
The Electronic Solar Switch is part of the Sunny Boy's DC isolator. The Electronic Solar Switch must be
securely inserted into the bottom of the Sunny Boy and may only be removed by a qualified electrician.
The easured in Wh (watt hours), kWh (kilowatt hours) or MWh (megawatt hours). The energy is
the power calculated over time. If, for example, your Sunny Boy operates at a constant output of 3000 W
for half an hour and then at a constant output of 2000 W for another half hour, it has fed 2500 Wh of
energy into the gird within that hour.
The power is measured in W (watts), kW (kilowatts) or MW (megawatts). Power is a present value. It
displays the power your Sunny Boy is currently feeding into the grid.
Bluetooth communication does not require visual contact
between the devices.

The output of the Sunny Boy is shown as a diagram in the display. The daily
graph is displayed by default. The right bar of the diagram represents the
current hour. A blank column is displayed in the course display at night when
the Sunny Boy does not feed any electricity into the grid.
The column for the current hour is adjusted every five seconds. After four
seconds, it goes out for one second and then displays the current value.
The display shows the current values of your PV system. The displayed values are updated every five seconds.
You can operate the display by tapping on the Sunny Boy's lower cover.

Do not open the Sunny Boy.
Do not remove the cable from the Sunny Boy.
Work on the Sunny Boy must only be carried out by a
qualified electrician.
DANGER!
Lethal voltages inside the Sunny Boy!
CAUTION!
Hot parts of the housing pose a risk of burns!
Some parts of the Sunny Boy housing can become hot during
operation. However, this does not apply to the lower housing
cover.
Only touch the lower housing cover during operation.
Yield loss due to poor heat dissipation!
Do not place objects on the housing.
