Required information, setup and verification for SMA CSV.
Import the supported SMA CSV file format. The source must deliver files in the format expected by this connector; renaming another file to CSV does not convert it.
File onboarding is complete only after the source export, secure delivery, field mapping and recurring arrival have all been checked.
Connection type: File import.
Provide the installed peak power used for spike filtering and confirm its interpretation against your export. CSV support depends on the exact SMA logger model.
Provide your company and contact person, the intended Insights account, the source identifiers and explicit permission for the requested scope. Include a recent source example for verification.
| Information / setting | What is needed | Supplied or configured by |
|---|---|---|
| File delivery source (BROWSER) | Agree the source location and transport; Eniris configures access without putting credentials in public URLs. | Eniris with installer |
| Peak power for validation (LARGEST_KWP) | Installed peak power in kWp; confirm the rating used for this connector’s spike filter. | Customer / installer |
| Time zone (TIMEZONE) | Time zone of the source timestamps, for example Europe/Brussels; identify any files already using UTC. | Customer / installer |
The installer configures export on the datalogger using FTP credentials supplied by Eniris. Follow the SMA datalogger FTP setup for preparation, model-specific options where documented, and the test upload. Eniris must confirm the exact model and export format for this connector.
Check that the first collection completed, then open the intended Insights account and verify the relevant measurements or metadata. Compare source IDs, timestamps and units with the original source. Check the next scheduled execution as well. An active schedule or a healthy job alone does not prove that every requested measurement was received.
For ordinary onboarding meters, creation requests an immediate first run and keeps recurring collection active. Source publication times, upload intervals and provider limits still apply; immediate collection cannot manufacture missing source data.
If no file arrives, inspect the logger/export status, destination, authentication, network route and folder. If files arrive but no measurements appear, provide the filename, format, source identifiers and timestamp so Eniris can check parsing and mapping.
Costs are not established for this connector. Confirm provider access, export licences and any project charges with Eniris before activation.
