    EG4 18kpv Questions

    Quick question, Has anyone tried the 18KPV fast charge? I tried mine the other night and display showed the fast charge activated but it did not charge the batteries. I think I may have a setting incorrect, If yours is working, what are the charge settings?

    EG4 18KPV Charging Settings

    The "On-Grid Cut-Off SOC(%) (?)" is the value that will switch you to grid. When the solar starts to generate the grid usage will taper off as the the PV starts to take the load.

    RESOLVED: EG4 6500EX and 6000EX Lights Flickering FIRMWARE

    Looking at the data logger recording speed (1 per 5 minute) compared to the SA recording speed (1 per 10 second), the data logger will more than likely miss an event. Maybe it is that its that SA will show the event while DESS monitor will miss it, only giving the appearance of fixing the problem.

It was suggested that I ask you to use DESS Monitor for a bit and see if...

    I have similar issues with one of the inverters (master) rebooting, I upgraded to the 79.67 and the problem still persists. I have been in contact with signature solar, but as of today have not received any direction or suggestions on what needs to be done to correct this issue.

    I am experiencing similar issues as well and working with signature solar, still no solution. I have split phase EG4 6500's with EG4 48v batteries. The system seems to not have this issue when in SBU or USB modes and SUB is OK at night time. However if the solar panels are producing power (no...
