Thats kind of my point. If you build software/firmware that you expect to change, best practice is to make it simple... So I bought that other cable that signature carries. Couldn't get it to work with the prolific drivers, but when I used the drivers recommended by the manufacturer of the...

Sigh....that would probably work although from a matter of principle perspective I guess it bothers me a lot to spend money to fix EG4's software issues. As a software guy, if you are going to send something out the door half baked, you darn well better make it easy to update. Again, thanks for...

If the adapter I have won't work then thats probably the end of the line. I'm ok with some DIY stuff but these things are a science project. I'm actually not convinced one of the batteries doesn't have an issue. I have two and they don't charge remotely inline with each other. Based on the SOC...

I'm using this cable (open to suggestions), along with the Prolific drivers. I did disconnect the battery from the inverter as well. No luck...

Gave it a shot, not having any luck. Can get the port open, set the pack number and start sequence. Adds the address ok (does all this whether the battery is connected or not BTW as long as the adapter is connected). But never actually populates any data off the battery. Any ideas?

Gotcha, I will give that a shot. Will need to figure out how to make it happen, can the firmware update be done from a Mac? I don't even own a PC laptop at this point.

Mine is doing the same thing. EG4 3K with two LP4 batteries. Since new the SOC at 56.4 volts has been slowly dropping. Now goes to about 81%, pretty annoying. I don't actually know what this does to my low voltage cutoff. Have it set to shut down at 5%, will need to check what the voltage is...

Gotcha, was hoping there was some kind of built in resistor or something that would allow it to read regardless, suppose thats just not a thing. Thanks for confirming!

Just setup my EG4 3000, have it hooked to an EG4 battery and 3.3KW worth of panels. Everything setup easily and is generally working well (except the wifi dongle/app which is useless garbage). One question though, is this unit not capable of showing PV input watts without a load on it? I'm...
