Ok well I received the high dollar USB cables and I didnt even reboot the PI and everything connected and hasn't even posted any CRC errors. I have rebooted and it connected back up again. I sure hope this works long term, and maybe this could help others.

USB1 is the other growatt invertor, even if I swap cables it always reports issue with USB 1

Here is some of my Log I am having USB issue for sure.can one of you guys that are way smarter than me that can help? Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 Serial (UART) IC Bus 002...

By some miracle I have all 3 devices connected and monitoring,but I have cables everywhere and at some point todaynI will have to reboot and my life will go to hell again.LOL

I just reflashed but did not do the update and same issue as before. I sure hope the cables work!

I have purchase 2 Orange PI 3 LTS just lie the one from SA both with same exact results.. Her is a question for the group... What about reflashing the SA img on SD card???

Here is a quick video of the issue in action,I am so frustrated at this point. I had to ZIP the video to attach it.

I just order 3 of those sheilded with ferrite ends for 33 bucks I hope that helps. Mine connects for while then drops and so far this morning after 5 shutdowns it still wont come back up with the right USB names. GEEZ The few hours it worked perfect was great I loved all the info !

for some crazy reason I have the 2 invertors showing up after 15 reboots with the correct USB names,now my issue is keep the Battery USB from dropping nonstop. I had to change setting to USE INVERTOR setting just so I can see the battery status realtime. I ordered another UART adapter to USB...

I just got solar assistant and mine is doing the EXACT same thing the USB keep changing and Dropping connections.

I have 2 5000Es in Parallel and I can get 100a from each invertor for 200a total . Mine are set for 80a charge currently on each invertor.

This normal I have 2 in parallel, change to SOL and PV will power first then BAT if needed.MY battery is fully charged and only using Solar unless Panels can provide enough power.

I just setup 2 5000es in parallel so far they are working great. I was told by a tech to turn AC power on at the same time when you first put them in parallel.
