hi Alh, I dunno about Growatt, but looking at the manual, I think we first need to know what settings you have for program 1, 5, 12, 19, 20, 21 ?

Hi Andrey, I only know about SolarAssistant which is pretty good and runs on a dedicated RPI. unfortunately in your case to monitor and be able to make changes on your 3x parallel inverters, and 2 others, you would need 3x RPI and 3 licenses. So that becomes pretty expensive.... As far I...

Glad that your issue has been solved. maybe your monitoring software can do this, which monitoring software are you using? you can always setup VNC server on your RPI and the VNC client on your laptop or other device. Then you can remote access your RPI and change most of the settings. (this...

I had exactly the same problem, here is how to solve it. 1) press the RST button for more than 5 seconds. if this not works (and it didn't work in my case) 2) Connect your laptop to the BMS RS232. (if you have this cable) and use the software PBMSTOOLS. if your RS232 connection is working, you...

04 is low battery warning. What are your battery settings on the inverter? especially, what is the cut-off voltage set to?

hello friends, I need some ideas, feed back on experience with BMS. I have an Axpert II max 10kw connected to a battery (10kw - 15S) using the PACE BMS inside. Communication between Axpert and battery using RS485 is working. I can see that the settings 26-27 (bulk and float) are automatically...

interesting, I didn't try with this model, but I know that on some clones it works "only with batteries", so it depends of the firmware. (the electronics inside look 100% similar) I believe if you have no success in SUB mode, it will not work in other modes, anyway would be interested if you...

you are correct, as long the battery have enough power, the inverter should not shutdown. HOWEVER it could be due to some settings!! Try to factory default the inverter settings. check if you have the same issue with the Grid connected... Do you have a BMS cable to your battery? -->...

Dexter, I can help and add Dutch as language, let me know the procedure... thanks!

yes, that is the inverter. I have utility available, so I changed setting 16 from OSO to CSO. setting 12 on 48V (that gives me around 18% SOC) That is the best setting I found that works for me... But still wondering why I have no extra value using BMS, since I had to go back to USE and put...

:) correct, I was not talking about SOK batteries. isn't 5% SOC too low? many people say to respect the charge until 80% and discharge until 20%..... Thanks :)

Hi Dexter, thank you for the useful information. The only problem I have is that my inverter discharge the battery until the battery goes into alarm. Last time, it was around 4% SOC. My inverter is connected to the battery using CAN. Is it possible that some information is not sent using the...

very late feedback, problem solved, as long you don't have a 2 way meter installed by the utility company, they will charge you both directions. the only solution is to get the meter changed or install a smart meter with zero export config

I read somewhere that it will work with the SPH, however I lost the link and can't find it anymore :( Anyway, some strange things I experienced using an CHNT, ok, this was on a Growatt MOD inverter, and had to set BOTH inverter and smart meter to address 004 (WEIRD....). just to tell you...
