Windows Logo testing

During the installation process of an SMA Windows driver, Windows will warn you that

the software you are installing has not passed the Windows Logo testing.

This warning is displayed when third-party drivers are installed. It indicates that the

manufacturer's driver has not been tested in the Microsoft "Windows Hardware Quality

Labs (WHQL)".

SMA Solar Technology AG has tested and approved the driver's functionality. You can

ignore the recommendation from Microsoft to abort the installation and proceed with the

installation of the driver.
