Growatt Error Codes: 4 and 19

[chocoheadfred]

Batteries went dead overnight (we had a big storm in NC yesterday and basically didn't generate any new power yesterday).

Inverter is showing fault codes 4 and 19 this am after it finally rebooted, which took about 5 minutes of it turning on and off (kind of like little engine that could).

Weird that it's showing 19 and 0 Volts on the batteries, just like it's not able to read them. Any ideas? It was pretty cold in there last night so perhaps the batteries are too cold to receive energy this morning??

It does not have enough power to boot up. Turn it off and let it charge the battery for a while.

Yep, that's what it is. Thanks! Up to about 50% now. It's just very disconcerting when it does those sounds and errors for the first time, sounds like it is going to catch on fire or something. Nice to know now but perhaps there could be a better error code for just "chill out and wait a second, you need more juice so just take a break"

I'm very thankful for this community and all the people who have supported me so far on this forum. Ya'll are ballers!

Thanks, it certainly is discerning when it's beeping and everything like that. We plan on using this as AirBNB so I'll make sure I turn those off.

Turn off the inverter for a while.

 

[SignatureSolarJames]

reboot the battery, hit reset if there is no voltage
boot up the inverter and confirm that a charge source will be present
adjust the low SOC cut off to 5 or 10%

also, if I turn off the growatt inverter, how can the battery be charged?

The growatt will charge from solar, even if turned off.
But, why are you turning it off?
