Maybe @EG4_Jarrett could help...I am trying to get the EG4-LL V1 batteries to talk to Victron equipment but I cannot locate the firmware update on the eg4electronics website. THANKS...
Thanks for the reminder. My notifications fill up so quickly that it can be hard to keep track of what needs to be done.Hello.
Hope everyone is well. I am also looking for the EG4-LL V1 Firmware and Firmware Updater to get them working with Sol-Ark 12kW through BMS.
Nice thank you! I am going with try updating today! I have the special cable from Amazon already.Thanks for the reminder. My notifications fill up so quickly that it can be hard to keep track of what needs to be done.
Here is some V1 firmware that should work for you.
This firmware added the LuxPower protocol to our LL v1, but it should also have everything else too. Sol-Ark, Schneider, etc. Let me know if this works for you. If not, please tag me, DM me, whatever. Just get with me so I can get you the right one.
EG4-LL v1 firmware
I purchased this one below based on recommendation from the Signature Solar Video.Oh nice! I'm working on testing cables from Amazon right now too, so I'm curious if the cable you have works, and if so, which one you bought.
Let me know if you run into any problems!

Hi @EG4_Jarrett.
Ok. I am just getting into things now. I have two pics attached.
I already had a USB cable that I used to update EG4 communications hub and LifePower4 batteries Early last year with no issue. It uses the orange pair only (pin1 and pin2).
Will this work since I am only using the RS485 to update the firmware on the EG4-LL V1 to batteries?
I will use a standard CAT cable when connecting the EG4-LL V1 x 2 batteries to the Sol-Ark via CAN Bus.
Or is it best that I use the DTECH and connect the RS485-B, RS485-A, CAN High and CAN Low wires?

Awesome! Glad everything worked out!!Success!! I reset the BMS and the update went through on one.
I need to reflash my eg4ll v1 batteries back to the original bms file. I had updated it to the sol-ark back in december 2022. alas, i need to return to the original, is that file available?Awesome! Glad everything worked out!!
