    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Understood and will rectify it. But within my operation I never pull more than 20A from a battery. 40A total from the bank. 40A on 6AWG is well within the wire capabilities and within the 100A output specced from the battery terminal output. But point taken. Will place back on the bus bar and...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Fully updated both batteries. I was on old 3.32. Also looked at the issue of resistance so I swapped the cables around. (Was POS on top left and Neg on bottom right) Ran it for 10 days like this. And 15 or so days of down to 15/20% and back to 100 daily. Settings 56.4 float 56.4 bulk. At...

    EG4 6000EX-48HV Idle Consumption?

    Mine goes from 110-170 sometimes depending on load. Less load usually gives me higher idle.

    4 days of full 48/49v cycling. 0% till full SOC. Still have this low cell. Tried holding it at 55v float for many hours. Its still sticking at 96-98% SOC depending on the day. Confirm if this is fine to just ignore? Or how can I get it to equalizer and go back up like the other pack.

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Well no change. But everything seems to be working. I'm getting solar power and I'm getting AC output from batteries so I'll leave it and manage. The cell probably will never balance either since that occurs at 3.4v and that cell can't go past 3.35 for some reason. I increase float to 56 for a...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Ok. Got it. So I tried last two days on weekend where I could monitor it 24/7 with the provided settings. Couple things I noted Saturday went well. It came up from 0 and went to 100% SOC reported by BMS tools on both batteries. And worked perfectly. One cell was still low though by about 90mv...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Idk I think I got scared here when the first pack hit 0.0% reported by the BMS but the cell voltages still seemed to have more juice in them but still I didn't want the battery to throw any alarm or anything for having 0.0% and shutting down or protecting or anything. I turned back on solar...

    Fully discharge to what voltage or SoC? Just want to be specific. 5%?

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Didnt get opportunity today to update the firmware as i had to leave. But just followed a test with some screenshots attached. 56V absorb/ 54.4 float settings Battery % 96 I just want a clear answer again, when set to User, is it safe for longevity and reliability of the batteries for the PV...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Looks like 3.32 on the lower corner of the BMS tools screen. I know it's not the latest but I have pretty terrible luck with updating firmwares unless it's extremely necessary. Haven't seen anything about voltages float/bulk in the later changelogs

    And just to show. This is why I can't use EG4 comms. OV protect is 3.6 and alarm is 3.55. EG4 sends it to 58.4. thats 3.65. everytime it will shut down the battery. Why is this that way? Even at 57.6 that's 3.6v. still will send it in OV protect range.. User settings just also aren't working...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Seems random. But today now. 56.2v bulk and 54v float when it hits 54v charging slows and current falls and that SOC is like 70%. Doesn't reach bulk voltage them go to float. It just slows once inverter reaches float. Then that is like another 6 hours at float voltage/current to reach full...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Yup. I did. The SoC magically changed to 100.3 instantly. Not sure if it was just stuck at 98.8 after charging had stopped with my previous values. The voltage on the battery terminal via multimeter just quickly rose until 56.2 on both terminals and 6000EX screen. Nothing else. But SoC is...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    To the part on the BMS and PC I don't believe you get access to change any parameters on eg4 battery and On the point of the voltages and the case for everyone. So it is normal and acceptable for the inverter to push full current in to 100% SoC on user settings? I found out after trial and...

    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Me yet again, I have a question. When I am on EG4 BMS comm mode the voltages go too high for my liking. I resorted to User mode. However, while in BMS comm mode with EG4 settings. The battery slows charge whenever the SoC hits 96% to 10A each battery which I think is nice. However when in...
