Yolanda – If the system has an SMA inverter that is registered on Sunny Portal, then you can use the Portal mobile apps to access the PV plant production on your mobile device. Go to the appropriate app store and search for Sunny Portal, or use the buttons on the lower left side of the Sunny Portal home page to download (https://www.sunnyportal.com) Best Regards, Mike

I have a 10 kw system. But when I view on line it does not work properly. 1 or 2 hours it gets offline.
Thanks

Surendra – You will need to contact SMA Service to troubleshoot this. Do you know if the inverter is stopping production or is it only a Portal display of production issue? If just a display issue, then you can choose Communications from the menu.
Here is the contact information for our Service Center:
