3.2.1 Initial Setup via LCS tool
The STP 60 inverters and the SMA Inverter Manager must
be commissioned via the local commissioning and service
tool (LCS tool). Commissioning is required before the
STP 60 inverters are connected to the utility grid and start to
feed-in power.
The LCS too enables the selection of predefined country
data sets for different utility grids. Customer-specific country
data sets must be provided by SMA and imported via the
LCS tool (see installation manual of the SMA Inverter
Manager / SMA Digital I/O Box / LCS Tool).
After installation, check all cables and close the inverter.
Turn on AC power.
