Brandan, are you still needing BMS communications with the Seplos BMS boards..with the Growatt SPF 6000.. I am very familar as I have 3 lifepo4 batteries BMS Seplos to my SPF6000t Growatt.. etc.. The Growatt SPF6000t-DVM can only communicate with BMS as RS485 communications,etc from the Seplos...

:unsure: I have a question for those electrical engineer types.. Lets talk about 120/240v split phase USA electrical.. say I have a Oven Range stove system that is 120/240v range.. it is wired to the power source receptical with L1, L2, Neutral and Ground.. Now, lets turn on the...

Depending on battery types, controller charger, etc.. BMS typically associated with LifePo4 Lithium Phosp types and if they are Seplos board(s), as the battery(s) reach up around 98% SOC between the BMS and Charge controller if the BMS board(s) are in communication with the Charge controller...

Bret, Hi Thanks for the comeback.. so basically, my feedback with the PI will amount to the same info I am now receiving from the Growatt Dongle.. however the question next is, what about the status of each battery and it's SOC, voltage and amps .. all of which currently is being fed to...

Yes, built like a tank,, I have SPF6000T DVM for 3 years now.. as for those who are worried about idle consumption.. really are you worried about 60-100watts.. ,, I never notice the idle load, because what I have seen at night with the Shine App as low as 10watts without the refrigerator...

Hi, when you installed your PV wires into the growatt, did you loosen the upper lugs screws, if so and you lossened the bottom and push to far up into the recepticle, it would have pushed the internal wires out of the sockets, that would then prevent Growatt from showing any PV array.. only...

No need to do that "shopman" The Growatt can communicate with LifePo4 Lithium with BMS boards.. just had to learn the mystery of why it doesn't. I has to do with Cat cable and RJ45 pin settings and the RS485 port of the Growatt to the RS485 port of the BMS battery port..

Hi DIY's same for me. Have 3 years of extensive use of the SPF6000T DVM as of BMS, if your batteries have the ability to BMS communicate, they will communicate with the Growatt.. I may be able to solve this for you.. first the Growatt only can communicate RS485 on this Growatt. A. you...

I have a SPF 6000T- DVM and having issues, with three packs and correct BMS addresses.. Today for some reason the Growatt decided it did not like the L1 L01 51 Lithium BMS communications setting and went to Fault 20, and it was working fine for past month.. but today No, keep going to Fault 20...
