    Signature solar eg4 6500ex 48v F08 code

    Just wanted to update this thread with a work around that seems to have cured my problem in case anyone has this issue later. My slave inverter was having F08 codes during partly cloudy days, as well as dropping offline. I noticed this really only happened during battery charging, and when the...

    Signature solar eg4 6500ex 48v F08 code

    Jared, Been thinking about it, and I’m just going to do the upgrade program. Going to try my luck with the 18 kpv model. I can’t trust these 6500s, they work for six months, then start giving me issues. Thank you for trying to help though.

    Signature solar eg4 6500ex 48v F08 code

    I have a parallel system of 2 signature solar eg4 6500ex 48v inverters with a rack of 7 eg4 batteries. I am now on my fourth Inverter, and once again, having issues. This time I am having a F08 code on the slave inverter. This will shut the system down automatically. This almost always happens...

    eg4 back feed issue.

    I’m having an issue with my split phase eg4 set up. The slave inverter is back feeding amperage through the pv2 circuit when a load is supplied (water heater). It also will not charge the batteries above 25a. It’s also emitting a high pitch whine during loads. See video for example. Thanks for...

    Scary high solar panel string readings

    I have a parallel system with two eg4 6500 inverters and a battery rack of 7 lifepower 4 batteries. This is an off grid system. I Have been having charging issues with these inverters in bms mode and posted in another thread about it. I have since gone back to use/use and manual settings. I...

    EG4 6500 charge amps in bms mode

    Bummer, I guess I will go back to manual settings then. This thing is just not charging very well. Can you confirm these parameters please? This is what I got from sig solar about a year ago, just wanted to make sure they are still good. use on master use on slave Menu 2 charge current 60a Menu...

    EG4 6500 charge amps in bms mode

    Is there a way to increase the charge rate, but still use the bms? It’s super slow. If I go back to manually setting rates again, what is a good charge amp setting? This is an off grid system, no a/c input to the inverters.

    EG4 6500 charge amps in bms mode

    What are people seeing for battery charge amps in their eg4 6500 inverters when in bms mode? I have two inverters in parallel with 7 lifepower 4 batteries. I used to run a manual battery charging setting when I was having fault code 61 issues. In that setting I was running a 60a charging for...

    Thank you. So is there anything I can do? Or, is it rma time?

    EG4 F08 code, dead inverter

    Reading other posts about the F08 fault it looks like it might be a battery buss issue? I measured voltage there and have 55.5 volts. I’m using the 6 lifepower4 batteries. I’m thinking this may be the case as now I cannot get the batteries to come online. They go through the self test and I hear...
