    Problem solved. The unit came with two RS485 cables. One is labeled RJ45 Pin 1-2 and the other is labeled RJ45 Pin 7-8. I switched from the latter to the former cable and it works!

    Inverter: EG4 3000EHV-48 Battery: single EG4 LifePower4 (48V) Solar Assistant real time monitor Here's my battery SOC over the course of one month. Note how the SOC max drops slowly over the month. Why? (Top horizontal line is 100% in 20% increments). Charging seems to terminate prematurely...
