Thanks for that downloaded from the Jakiper site and able to change the parameters to mirror post# 49. Battery charging, cell 16 never reached balance and a couple of other cells over voltage. Delving into battery not as scary as I feared.

So finally got my battery sorted. (See #57 for history). In October fogstar supplied a patch for the BMS (P144v300-21634-1.03.bin) this did nothing to improve the situation. The beginning of this month received another patch to try (P144v300-21634-1.06.bin) and yahoo this seems to have sorted...

This is the commissioning form As far as I understand from reading it through you only need to fill in appendix c if your inverter has G100 approval, quoting the ref number in the designated spot and confirming it complies in the other boxes. Or am I missing something major.

Yes both those were set up by fogstar before delivery, though both battery and inverter selection are pylon I was going to change inverter to Solis but it is not listed. One of the selection was Chinese writing? And I selected pylon on my inverter.

Will hold fire and see if anything comes back in the next two weeks then send an email to let them know I am still alive.

When I start to make changes to the parameters, will they stay or do I need to click write all for them to stay?

Can I install a double socket to the backup port for grid outages so I can run an extension to keep my freezer running or do I need to run the supply from the inverter through a consumer unit for mcb and RCD safety.

Well that was a waste of half an hour. Made the changes but the pbmsTools write all and reset settings are locked anyone know what fogstars password is? These are the parameters it will not let me change.

Here is the sign-up for the export tariff without the MCS certificate - https://octopus.typeform.com/to/UAbK9bRq#kid=xxxxx It costs £250 and you require an electrical certificate for your property.

Thank you for your help but no joy. Note attached to download is same password, typed this in and enter. Still not allowed to make changes. Deleted and reinstalled program, same. Two options next to password change and clear. Tried to change, original password error. Will have to try and contact...

Thought so, the wiring diagrams are less than helpful.

Is that via a transfer switch, Or is it the inverter doing the switching?

Anyone with this AC coupled inverter know if the back-up port is permanently live or only when the inverter has no AC input.

It is a fogstar rack battery the battery has shown the same warning as @Oldman2 above and also cell overvoltage warning. It had already shown the fully warning and was continuing to charge, it was 55.8+ but by the time I had grabbed my camera it was starting to come down. I have contacted Solis...

Is that your G99 application. I have one in at the moment since begining of July and heard nothing. Wondering if I should go ahead and install and send in the commissioning sheets A3-2 and G100.

Yes we have trees to the south so lose production about 3 pm but it comes back at tea time.:)

Above my pay grade, I expected it to work coming from the supplier. I was told it would be configured to work with my inverter. Too old to be tech savvy but can configure settings if talked through the procedure. How would I obtain information of what the correct settings are?

Thanks but you need to tell me where to find the setting, is it on the actual inverter? If yes I will find it.

Electricity north west have a very helpful website. https://www.enwl.co.uk/get-connected/apply-for-a-new-connection/generation-and-storage/micro-generation-and-storage-connections/

4 kW of panels split east and west in Lancashire. Yesterday 11.7 kW August 83kW July. 364kW Since end of May system install 1087kW I'm no expert but 3.1 seems low.

Ordering stuff ready to install Solis inverter and fogstar battery. Solis instructions tell me I can extend the meter port connection but not what size cable to buy. Could anyone that has installed a Solis hybrid remember the core size? looking on line the cables range from 0.2mm to 2.5mm. This...

Scroll down this link and you will find the form you need. I think you will also need G100 appendix C. https://www.energynetworks.org/operating-the-networks/connecting-to-the-networks/connecting-generation-to-the-electricity-networks

I too am getting these alarms on my battery and my inverter ( Solis S5-EH1P5K-L) is alarming and shutting down for about 15 mins until it sorts itself out. It always occurs as the battery is fully charged. I have asked Solis to update the software to see if it helps, but there seems to be some...

Can I assume the settings on @Oldman2 post #49 to be what I am aiming for. Can I make the changes to the battery whilst it is connected to the inverter or do I need to isolate battery and remove Comms lead. Will watch the video posted by @houseofancients and with a faint heart delve into my...

Do I need to disconnect it from the inverter
