Because it was a "just to market" new battery and being unsure if I wanted or needed more than 5kWh of storage I bought just 1 battery. It soon became obvious that 2 packs were needed to cover my use and it was much easier to purchase 2 more than to loose the money on the first purchase by...

I use this one for daily checks and any adjustments, its very user friendly and stays open on my desktop most days, I think I downloaded from Jakiper batteries site PbmsTools_V2.5EN.zip password is 123456 It may be worth you getting it for future use, maybe someone here can link you to it.

It may be Pz#168178 I use version V2.5FN for everyday stuff and thats password is 123456 (no protocol section in this software) I would read all then edit just what you need to change and then write all to save it. hth

Starting from the beginning, can I assume you installed the battery? Did you select a battery name like Fox or Pylontech in the Solis menu? or go for user defined settings? With the battery did you download the tools from Fogstar, install Pbmstools software and using the rs232 battery port...

Sorry if I have offended, I am happy to enjoy and I would rather not fiddle. I am going to lay the blame firmly at the large LCD display on each battery that shouts at me thus. Inviting a button press to alarm status information which gets even more red.

Not sure if this will help or not but here is a screenshot of a memory dump on B2 which includes the testing done before delivery. Going on the alarms in April I would say its safe to assume that the red lines are the fault reports. I'm not sure I can post a complete xls file here for viewing...

I'm still in a tight spot here with alarms from the BMS's. As well as the above "Fully" alarms on Battery 1. Battery 2 & 3 are also alarming daily since 9th Aug with "Fully" Looks to me like its when the pack volts goes over 55.2v as all the errors are with pack voltage of 55.3v up to 55.75v...

I checked the BMS memory info via Pbmstools today and found it had recorded a couple of errors yesterday with Battery1 cell 10. Anything I should tweak to stop this in future? Here are the current parameters followed by the memory info.

After reaching 100% B1 & B2 alternated with +-0.21A while B3 sat with zero Amps. Once that stopped all 3 Batteries with zero amps the pack voltage started to drop. Quick bms checks showed B1 53.726v B2 53.720v and B3 53.703v a spread of.023v B1-B3. Another check showed B1 53.696v B2 53.692v...

There is a tab on PbmsTools called Multi monitoring but I have no idea how it is set up or how it would work. I can manually take screenshots of realtime monitoring but its pot luck as to the exact moment the BMS thinks its time for 100% and zero inverter charge current. This was B2 yesterday...

My 3 batteries were full charged by 2pm today. Bat1 was 6.81A 55.795V pack volts 100% and balancing, Bat2 was 6.40A 54.529V pack volts 100% no balancing Bat3 was 8.29A 54.762V pack volts 100% no balancing. No alarms and Amps dropped to zero on all after a few mins. Looks like another sunny...

LOL yes 3.65 time to do a quick edit ;)

Thank you @SeaGal for the pointers, I have made the changes you suggested OVP 3.65V OVP release 3.45V Balancing at 3.40V but the lowest Vcell I can set is 20mV I'm not aware of anything I can change to limit the charge current at 95% SOC I will monitor to see what happens at 55.2V and above as...

I really dont know how to do what you ask. When I first got the Fogstar batteries I tried using user defined battery settings and it was a bit of a disaster with lots of alarms. Below is the default list of settings. Battery capacity 100A Discharge depth 80% Overcharge SOC 95% Overdischarge...

@Quattrohead I have adjusted the full charge volts to 55.20v which I believe is full charge for the Fogstar pack. Here is the current parameter page @DIYrich.
