  1. Problem solved. I did a Firmware update on the Deye inverter. That did not help and the problem remained. I then called Deyness and they inspected the network cables being used. They advised me to change the cables and that did the trick. 150A charge and discharge. Solar panels are working and producing and storing at the optimuim with Batt set to Lithium.
  2. Setting to anything wolithout the BMS active compromises warranty on batteries apparently.
  3. Hi. Thanks for that advice but I have done both. Restart and DIp Switch master/slave settings. I have made contact with my installer.
  4. I am not to sure how to approach fixing this. Maybe changing the network wiring.
  5. Thank you @Sidewinder I do not think tgatcwill solve it. When to Use itYou should only use the "Active Battery" function in a situation where your lithium-ion battery is completely discharged, the BMS has shut down, and the inverter is unable to charge it. Important Safety Note: This is a last-resort tool for a very specific problem. It should not be used in normal operation. Leaving it enabled could potentially bypass certain safety checks and is not recommended. Once the battery has been successfully "woken up" and is charging normally, you should disable the "Active Battery" setting again.
  6. HI All I have a 8kw Deye inverter, 14 x JA 550w panels and 3 x Deyness 5,12 kw batteries. I have set my Battery Capacity at 300Ah, Max A Charge and Discharge at 150A based on research. With these settings and Batt Mode on Lithium I get a charge of approx 2,66Kw on a good sunny day from my panels ( I understand this to be managed by the BMS) When I change my Batt Mode to 'use batt V' or Use batt %' the battery charge rate alomost doubles to abot 5-6Kw. Why does the setting ubnder lithium charge so slowly? How could I get the batteries to charge faster with BMS? Regards
  7. Thank you guys so much. These are the settings on the Li-BMS:
  8. Hi This is what my battery setting look like. Setup by installers. I am to scared to fiddle with any setting here.
  9. Hi @Scorp007. last night just before loadshedding ended. I started the heat pump. It slowly ramped up from 200W to aprox 1200W and the inverter did not trip. I think the base laod may have been a bit higher on Sunday when it did trip. I do think it is as @GreenFields has suggested that the batteries are causing the bottleneck. How do I work out what my maximum load during load shedding? @Scorp007 i will double check the discharge settings on the battery tonight.
  10. Thank you @GreenFields and @Scorp007. Really appreciate the advice. Does this tripping damage the equipment? Its an old ITS heat pump 4.7kW (Specs attached)I connected it to a CBI smart switch thus it only comes on based on the timing. (trying to figure out a way to program it to be off during load shedding but still keep it connected to the inverter to make the most of the PV panels during the day) Have switched it off during load shedding tonight, and not a single glitch! Also it seems like the load never exceeded 3kW when it tripped last night. I did not expect to be throttled by the batteries and a bit disappointed.
  11. Hi All Seeking some advice during loadshedding. I have (8kva Deye Inverter, 2 x Dyness 5.12kwh Lithium and 10 JA Solar panels 550w) first week. Everything in my home is connected to the inverter except the oven. Last night during load shedding, the inverter kept tripping (F56 error) My load did not exceed 2,5kw, at the time of tripping. I thought the inverter and batteries could handle a lot more than that. My installer says that I cannot run the heat pump, or other heavy equipment during load shedding times at night.( I need two more batteries for that) Is this correct? I have researched the F56 error, but have no solid solution for my specific system. Also does this F56 tripping damage anything? Regards
  12. HI All. After monitoring for a while, I think it could be an inaccurate reading from the Efergy monitor. The consumption on the meter does not correspond with the pre paid usage.
  13. Hi All. Its been my first week after my installation (8kva Deye Inverter, 2 x Dyness 5.12kwh Lithium and 10 JA Solar panels 550w) My whole house is connected to the inverter, except for two ovens and one geyser. City Power/Eskom is on 3 phase pre-paid. Been happy so far, except that I have a Efergy monitor (real time energy monitor) connected to my Eskom 3phase feed into my home and it fluctuates at about 0.5Kw. (With all appliances connected to the Eskom feed off) Not a lot but it does add up over time. My installer say it is normal but that does not make sense to me. Has anyone had a similar experience? Strange thing is that if I switch my Main switch off at the DB it drops to 0kw. Regards
