    Does anyone have EG4 Lifepower4 with a Schneider Conext XW+ 6848?

    That could very well be it! I’ll double check next time I’m on location. I’ll bring a communication hub with me just in case that’s not the issue. Thanks for the help man!

    Does anyone have EG4 Lifepower4 with a Schneider Conext XW+ 6848?

    Yea right there! Unbelievable I know. If it happens on 3 batteries must be user error. But I’ve watched all the videos multiple times. Very strange to me. Is it possible to do closed loop communication with 6 Lifepower 4 batteries and the Schnieder XW+ without purchasing the EG4 Lifepower 4...

    Does anyone have EG4 Lifepower4 with a Schneider Conext XW+ 6848?

    I can see all the battery info. Seems like communication with the BMS is fine. Only thing I can't do is "Get Boot Info" and I definitely selected 0 beforehand. Very strange that this happens on multiple batteries.

    Does anyone have EG4 Lifepower4 with a Schneider Conext XW+ 6848?

    I have the XW+6848 with Insight home. On attempt to operate in closed loop communication with Lifepower 4 I've had issues. When I am trying to add the BMS in the Insight home and I search for devices, It finds 1 device. But then, I don't see a new device on my device page. So I tried to update...

    EG4-LL V2 has protection fault out of the box (RESOLVED - see posts)

    Glad you got it resolved! FYI I have an EG4 6500 EX in Montego Bay, Jamaica for sale if anyone there is interested. I had two but one of them developed a fault so I am switching to a different system.

    EG4 - why no one connects AC input?

    Hey Fred! I'm currently working on sending them to Jamaica for commissioning. It's a big process with shipping and customs. Once I have them working I will report back. As for the first question. Yes, that is correct.

    EG4 - why no one connects AC input?

    Hi guys, I'm new to the forum. I had a system installed in Jamaica and unfortunately the professionals totally messed it up. Now I've took it into my own hands to learn. I've been studying for years and I've finally bought two EG4 6500's and 6 Lifepower 4 batteries to replace the old Trojan...
