I tried using the EG4 Monitor app, but that seems to require an extra dongle, so then I sent to the SolarPower app. All seemed to be going well and it said Registration Succesful, but when I try to login it says "User not found." What's an app I can actually use to monitor my inverters and...

I moved my solar setup today from an uninsulated area to an insulated one to keep the batteries warm. I hooked everything back up, pushed the power button on the 6500ex, and absolutely nothing happened. No lights, no sound, nothing. Thinking that maybe it didn't have enough power to start I...

I have 2 6000ex in parallel. I have some decent draw and it was overcast yesterday afternoon and worse today. I previously wired a generator into the main inverter so I fired that up, but even though the inverter registered AC input it's not charging the batteries, so I'm sitting at under 10%...

I'm starting to regret my purchase after watching Will's review, but at this point it is what it is. We are off-grid and living in our rv trailer while we build our house. I purchased the 6000ex instead of the 6500 expecting that I could use a single one to power everything and then bought a...

Brand new here and grateful to have found this forum. We recently bought 4.5 acres very off grid to live and farm. We found a great deal on the latest model of DC Solar trailer and brought that out for our power. This has 10 265 watt panels, Midnite Classic controller, 2 SMA Sunny Island...

I have a DC Solar trailer (10x265 panels, 2 FLA batteries, Midnite Classic 1500, 2 Sunny Island inverters) and it just isn’t cutting it for the amount of power we need. I just bought 60 260 watt panels to build a much larger system. Can I tie these panels in to the trailer? I’ve heard some...

I am finally trying to connect our inverter to the network and install the app so I can monitor things without having to run out to the inverter panel. We specifically chose to not have a password on our network and the SolarPower app is balking at this, not letting me advance through the...

I've heard that some inverters can do what I've heard called "luxury loads" that the inverter only powers if the batteries are at 100%. Is it possible to setup such a function on the 6000xp?

Here's a screenshot of the EG4 Monitor software from my inverters. It shows input great and has the Consumption on the right showing 4.8 kWh today. But in the middle of the page it shows 0W for the Consumption. How can I monitor current / active consumption? I would love to know how much we are...

I have 2 older 6000ex inverters that I'm considering trading in to upgrade our off grid power situation. I'm looking at the trade in program that lets me get the 18k at significant discount, but then saw the announcement for the FlexBOSS. Would I be better in an off grid split phase situation...

I'm trying to set up our second 6000ex in parallel with our current one. After connecting the batteries to it (2awg) and connecting a AC output cable (6awg) I turned it on just to make sure it did turn on before attaching the rest of the components. It worked, I felt very successful. With that...

I am planning on buying some of these batteries: https://signaturesolar.com/eg4-lifepower4-lithium-battery-48v-100ah I understand that they need to be in an insulated space to prevent them from charging in below-freezing conditions. But then I've also heard that batteries need to be in a...

I am currently running 4/0 cable to my 6000ex. Now I want to install my second 6000ex in parallel, so I need to get the batteries connected to both. Since I'm already coming off with 4/0 I figured to convert that down to two 2/0 lengths, but I'm not sure the best way to do that. Can I just lug...

One of my Lifepower4 batteries isn't turning on, so Signature Solar told me to run the BMS software from my computer. I have it downloaded and extracted and found my correct port to use. I have the CAT - USB cable plugged into my 0 battery and the other batteries all plugged into the RS485 ports...

I have 2 6000ex in parallel powering our home. We are off grid so that system is out entire power. We've noticed this before but last night our power cut out 3 times in the middle of the night for about 5 seconds. I don't have to do anything for power to come back, just wait. The batteries are...

I have 6 Life power 4 batteries and the 6000ex split phase inverter. Suddenly the inverter showed fault code 07 (overload) even though no new loads were put on it. I shut off the breaker from the batteries to the inverter and turned the inverter off, but it took about 15 minutes for the alarm...

I'm having some trouble setting up my second 6000ex in parallel with my first so I called Signature Solar tech support. They said that I must have PV input to all inverters in the parallel string for this to work. Is that true? Everything I've ever read says that PV input is the one thing that...

I have the chargeverter hooked to a Honda EB 5000. The chargeverter itself allows amp settings up to 100, but the supplied plug is a 30amp plug. Can I use a higher setting on the CV, or keep it to 30? Also, do I need to charge with 240v or can I charge in 120v mode from my generator?
