thoc reacted to zsde in Growatt SPF5000-es Strange reporting in dashboardYes, I have SA connected to both the Inverter and my Battery. SA does not take over the Management, it only presents the data from both the Inverter and Battery if both are connected. What SA allows though is some setting changes that can be done on the Inverter itself via SA.
Having said that, SA does allow an override with the Battery SOC management whereby you have an expanded set of parameters to manage Battery SOC within selected time periods.

This is correct. When I had the 5000es i used the CAN port and protocol 52. The setting did work. I had an old firmware on my inverter though so was getting some crazy recharge amps. I believe the firmware update fixed this issue, but cannot confirm as I never did it on the Growatt
Edit.. my bad. Just noticed i responded to old posts. The conversation clearly progressed some beyond this. Apologies

So we got a decent amount of sun yesterday. Panel charging power dropped to 500w at 96%, then shortly after reaching 99% it dropped to 300w, then 150w, 60w, 30w and eventually 15w of charging power.
That's when I disconnected the battery because I wanted to install the trunking to make it all look nice.
So it looks like it is working as it should, it isn't "overcharging" like it seemed to be doing on it's first cycle, since the charging power now drops to virtually zero.
So even though it never get's past 99% it is essentially 100% charged.
Who knows, maybe in a few days it will say 100% but either way it's not an issue.
Thanks to everyone on here for all the helpful info and advice!

thoc got a reaction from MKenny in Growatt settings keyHi all, i used "growattyyyymmdd" on the website and that worked fine. I also noticed the settings displayed on the site is not what is actually on the inverter. I've managed to change my output priority successfully and can see the change took effect on the inverter itself. I'm using the spf5000es if that makes a difference...

I am taking my battery in tomorrow to update firmware if everything goes according to plan. I will keep you guys updated how everything goes.🤞
