Communicating with battery BMS in parallel system


1) Only supports common battery-type installation

2) Use RJ45 to USB-A cable to connect any one inverter in the paralleled system to
your Lithium battery.

Set Master inverter battery type to “LI X” in LCD program 5. All other inverters should be set to
default value “AGM”. ** "X" = Battery Communication Protocol Number . For EG4 batteries, set to Li4.

Note: Make sure only one inverter is connected via RJ45 to USB-A cable and set as Lithium in LCD
program 5 and all others set to AGM.

Lithium Battery Settings
If choosing a lithium battery for the inverter, there are two modes supported.
1. Inverter to BMS communication with the battery via RS 485 Modbus
2. User defined setting using voltage levels (Program Settings 26 and 27)
Lithium Battery BMS Connection
There are two connections on the lithium battery, the RS485 port for BMS and the DC power cables.
Please follow the steps below to implement lithium battery connection:
1). Connect the battery terminal based on recommended battery cable and terminal size
(same as Lead acid, see section Lead-acid Battery connection for details).
2). Connect the end of RS485 port of battery to BMS(RS485) communication port of inverter.

Lithium battery communication and setting


The BMS communication cable (*shown in the figure below) delivers information and signal between a
ithium battery and the inverter. Utilizing the BMS will allow the following settings:

Troubleshooting Guide
Below is a list of faults, warning codes, potential scenario issues, explanations of code meaning, as well as
possible steps for correction.

In most cases a complete system reboot will remedy any erroneous errors. The steps for a complete system
reboot are (in this order) as follows:
1. Inverter - set to standby (move power switch to OFF position)
2. PV/AC - input breaker OFF
3. Batteries - breaker OFF

Once the system has fully shut down, toggle the power switch between the ON and OFF position for
approximately 30 seconds to drain the capacitors. When that step is complete, ensure your inverter’s power
switch is in the OFF position before restarting the system in the following order:
1. Batteries - breaker ON
2. PV/AC - input breaker ON
3. Inverter - switch ON
