    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    The Heat+CAN mode has Heat output and CAN(not used as it is proprietary JK protocol) Both will work, if you need the heat function get the Heat version if not, get the non Heat version.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Every single product/software is based on work by someone else, if the eg IEEE didn't make the standards no one would have standards for anything, nothing would work. Syssi code saved me a couple of hours work, not having to write my own serail reading code, had I know it was going to going be...

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    The cost to build and manufacture a product is not the cost of the raw materials. There is significant cost in labour to build the product, manage the inventory (import taxes), packing and shipping, payment processing fees, and provide support Not to mention the 1000's of hours research and...

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Yep you are totally right. Too many people that caused me to stop supporting this open source, as they: Complain about everything Want everything for free Don't provide any financial support Want many hours of support for free, to help build hardware/firmware which they have no experience...

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Yes I have a dedicated Goodwe protocol in addition to Pylon, Deye and Victron.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    I have a first generation, retrofit battery inverter, no issues with it. They come with a 10 year warranty here, check your local website for warranty info, it might differ by country.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    No that inverter does not support Pylon over CAN Bus. Nor do any of the Voltronic. CAN and RS485 are two completely different communication interfaces, electrically they are totally different. Goodwe is less than 10W self consumption at night...

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    There are many cheap options, Goodwe or Deye. My interface works with them.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Yes pretty sure it does NOT support Pylon CAN, I would use a different inverter brand, if you haven't upgraded already.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    This suggests it only supports RS485, confirm 300% with the seller and manufacturer, that it supports pylon over CAN bus!!!! https://www.invertersupply.com/media/data/Any-Grid_PSW-H_Battery-settings-for-Pylontech-Batteries_2021-05-07.pdf I have a board that is powered directly from the JK BMS.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Last time I checked they only supported RS485, confirm 300% with the seller and manufacturer, that it supports pylon over CAN bus!!!! You do not need the JK CAN model/heat BMS, The CAN is their own standard not used by inverters, and the BMS is not upgradeable.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    This has some info, but everything suggest that it should be an RJ11 at the inverter RJ11 ----- RJ45 1 Wh/Or 4 2 Or/Wh 5

    JBD/Overkill BMS CAN bus comms support for inverters

    Once you have the BMS connected to the Cerbo, with my interface, you can select which is used in the victron system, it is set to Automatic by default.

    JBD/Overkill BMS CAN bus comms support for inverters

    The EG4 6000XP seems to support Pylon CAN protocol, so I don't see why it wouldn't work. It uses the UART port that the dongle uses. Consider the JK-BMS if you want both Bluetooth app and my board connected. I have replied to your private conversation also. Regards.

    JK BMS CAN bus comms now possible for inverters that support Goodwe and Pylontech batteries

    Hi, Logs show you have no communications with the inverter, I test all my boards before shipping, so maybe a cabling and inverter config issue. My interface board is wired. Pin 4 CAN H, Pin 5 CAN L it should be straight through cable, CAN H connects to CAN H etc. Can you confirm your...
