Hi everyone, please excuse me if I'm not explaining this well as I am quite the n00b. I have an Eg4 6500EX-48 (connected to EG4 batteries) that after much trouble, I recently setup. We had bought it awhile back but only recently set it up on our tiny house/land that we have not yet moved into yet. Off the bat we encountered a lot of problems, the infamous error 61 which we fixed by updating the firmware but at first it could not connect to the com port. Tech support could not figure it out and my brother had the idea to downgrade to windows 10 from windows 11. And it worked! We thought we were finally in the clear, but it turns out our water catchment pump does not work if it's in the evening or raining despite the battery being fully charged (but works when pv is running). When the pump starts to run in evening the lcd screen on the inverter starts going crazy and once started flashing random error codes and the electricity is completely shut off to everything. Another time it didn't flash random error codes but just started making icons on the lcd screen rapidly appear and disappear. The power doesn't work for anything in the tiny house until the water pump is unplugged from the outlet. Any ideas on what's going on? Or am I just doomed because I bought an Eg4 that seems to now be discontinued? Thanks for any help you might have.
Also just wanted to mention.. has anyone gotten the watchpower app to work? Because I definitely haven't, ugh.
