    Solis AC Coupled Inverter Pylontech batteries charging profile pauses for 30+ mins at 90%?

    I pulled the BMS SOC directly from the battery and added the graph above - it also stalls there as well.

    Solis AC Coupled Inverter Pylontech batteries charging profile pauses for 30+ mins at 90%?

    Inverter temp is the IGBT Chip Temp field in Soliscloud. I cant remember if you were using the Solax Canbus/not using Soliscloud, in which case (for my HomeAssistant) its just showing as Inverter Temperature On setting the charge time to 07:00, will that cause any draw from the battery after...

    Solis AC Coupled Inverter Pylontech batteries charging profile pauses for 30+ mins at 90%?

    Why minimise the charge time? Its probably an OCD thing, but is related to your later question about why discharging before 07:00 - I only want to charge them to capacity as soon as possible, then set a discharge power of 0 between then and 07:00 (not yet implemented). But because the time of...

    Solis AC Coupled Inverter Pylontech batteries charging profile pauses for 30+ mins at 90%?

    Ive been trying to optimise the charge/discharge process with a cheaper overnight TOU tariff. 00:00 - 07:00. 3 x Pylontech batts US5000C @4.8KWH. 3KW inverter. I want to charge to 100% and have my Overdischarge at 10%. My desire is to minimise the time the batts are charging in the cheap TOU...

    Solis/ Ginlong Modbus Comms

    @shavermcspud apologies if you've already posted it elsehwere, but please could you link me to where the details are? Also, Ive seen other folk reference a Docker image, and there's a ton of stuff on github. What are folk currently using for extracting and controlling modbus. Ideally that...

    PylonTech US5000 and Solis Inverter - tweaking min/max SOC fail

    Hijacking this thread ...... I dont seem to be able to change the Overcharge SOC any more through the SolisCloud app or web portal. Has anyone else got this problem now? I used to be able to change it but now I cant - a new value is entered, press Save, but its not stored. I can successfully...

    Pylontech Time setting

    Does anyone know how to set the time on Pylontech batteries? I have console access and can see that the "time" command should work. The command on its own returns the time, which is incorrect for my timezone; if I had OCD it would drive me nuts, even though it probably has no operational...

    Solis 3.0kW 5G RAI Energy Storage not showing Solar Generation

    Edit: Answered - I contacted Solis supported who did a firmware update of the inverter and possibly monitoring platform update.

    Solis 3.0kW 5G RAI Energy Storage not showing Solar Generation

    Sorry - should have said - both CT clamps are connected. The grid clamp is correctly measuring the import.

    Solis 3.0kW 5G RAI Energy Storage not showing Solar Generation

    Edit: Answered - I contacted Solis supported who did a firmware update of the inverter and possibly monitoring platform update. Using the Solis 3.0kW 5G RAI Energy Storage AC coupled (not hybrid) inverter. My dashboard doesnt show the Solar input details - should it? Or is it only for systems...

    Yes - plant and data logger online, everything else seeminhly working OK.

    Solis RAI-3K-48ES-5G quick/easy force charge?

    Ive managed to get the powerline extension working more effectively (by coming off a lighting rather than socket circuit.....), and Im only losing a couple of packets/syncs an hour now, which seems to be suffiicent for good operation. Marginally related topic - does this screen ever get...

    Solis RAI-3K-48ES-5G quick/easy force charge?

    The issue is import meter not close to inverter. Been through the LoRa, WiFi, and Ethernet extender route per your post. Powerline is via two differnt consumer units so its flaky and hence desire for manual override.
