5 LCS-Tool
INFORMATION
It is essential to choose the correct grid code. A
modification after the first ten operating hours have
passed is only possible with a personal SMA Grid
Guard code.
The grid code parameters can be changed
subsequently with the LCS-Tool (see
Section 5.2.11, page 37). Prerequisite is the use of
the latest version of the LCS-Tool.
