Simplified error analysis – Error codes are shown on the web interface with an error description and information on error elimination.

Support of new device types – Updates for the devices supported; device types to follow can be loaded using an SD card.

If you have deactivated the Sunny WebBox's automatic firmware update, you can carry out the update manually using your Sunny WebBox's web interface.
