Yes, MC4s all around. Got it! (y) (y) Which male & female? The male from the very first panel & the female of the last panel? Not clear I fully follow. But I thought, after connecting all panels in series, that if I were to measure Voltage across the the array, that I would get a reading...

Thank you. We are almost there!

How would you do connect your solar array today? Any specific order of operation? Or just keep that DC switch off and connect panels as you bring them to the roof and mount them? Sounds amazing! Like they say, first time is a bit harder but then down the road things get easier and faster. Is...

Got it: keep the DC switch open during the install. Any other recommended sequence of operation when mounting & wiring the panels on the roof? Does it matter if I connect main leads to the panel before or after the panels are wired in series? Or none of this matters?

We have the racking system installed mounted on the roof and electrical devices wired all the way to the battery: Roof junction Box > DC Disconnect > Combiner Box > Surge Protection > DC Breaker > MPPT > Battery We are ready to move the panels to the roof and start wiring them. I realized that...

Just language. I did a hard reset and had to reconfigure my entire system, field by field.

Nope, restarting the gateway didn't change anything other than the order of the devices in the screen. Still no BMS Setup screen showing up. @Markus_EG4 were you able to clarify internally whether the SW 4048 should also have the same BMS Settings options when connected to a EG4 LP battery...

Correct, the EG4 BMS is connected and shows under Device List, but nothing beyond. Well, you were right before about EG4 firmware fixing the balancing issues, so yes, I'll take the leap and try resetting the InsightHome device. If you re-read this entire thread you'll see that I've been trying...

It doesn't matter if it is zero amps or 50W AC, which is our Starlink baseload. Regardless of the load, as soon as I set battery type to Li-Ion the inverter goes out on "Battery Discharge Over Current" Fault. I then am forced to change it back to "Custom" battery type and reset the fault, so...

@Markus_EG4 I do have "Basic" and "Advanced" tabs under my InsightHome and all of the screenshots that I shared are from the Advanced tab. You guys sells both SW & XW inverters, could you not double check on your end whether the SW 4048 should also have the same BMS Settings options when...

@Markus_EG4

As I tried to explain before. I do not have access to this screen "Battery Management Systems Settings" and that seems to be the issue.

Currently I do not see any faults UNLESS I try to change battery type from Custom to Li-Ion. If I do it, then I get a "Battery Discharge Over Current" Fault, turning off the inverter.

@Markus_EG4 I was able to follow the "Setup Up Guide for EG4 with InsightHome" up to page #9, shown below: Two issues trying to follow the guidelines: 1. when I change battery type to "Li-Ion", no "Charge Cycle" appears. So I am not able to continue the guideline instructions. 2. If I...

@Markus_EG4 I need some help. I've updated each EG4 to V3.32 and InsightHome to 1.8 as requested, however I still do not see the BMS Setup screen you referenced to in the photo below: Under InsightHome Setup screen I do not see the "BMS Setup" option. Please see below: Here is my EG4 BMS...
