These files contain the new firmware code that updates the inverter's control system. They are processed by the official update software, such as the SMA Update Manager or Sunny Explorer. The internal format is proprietary, meaning that they are not intended to be edited manually.
  • Purpose: To update the firmware of solar inverters.
  • Usage: Loaded using the official update software only.
  • Security: Ensure you use SMA's official website as your source.
