Hello !
I would like to ask for a helping me with setting up a SYL battery (sbl5.1k2) with my Multiplus II 5000VA. I especially need help with communication cables.
The battery has 3 COM 1/2/3 ports

I connected COM 1 with multiplus via Ve.can bus type A. I made a parallel battery connection via COM 2 ---> COM 2.via rs485 Is this involvement right?

Thank you very much for every answer !
 
I suspect you are a very long way from correct.

You need a GX device to manage the VE.Can communication with a Multiplus

You need to make sure the batteries can communicate the relevant information to the GX in a way the GX can understand. It's not clear if you have the MP-II GX version.

Page 6 from the linked manual:

"Only use the product with SYL-authorized inverter."

I suspect your batteries and the Victron inverter can never speak to one another.
