  1. Hi All, Any insight to an issue my Friends having as per below ? I have 2 x 5kw Kodak (Axpert) inverters in parallel, connected to 3 x UP5000 batteries. Master inverter has 9 Canadian solar 330w solar panels (3 strings of 3) and Slave has 6 Jinko 445w panels ( 2strings of 3). The issue I have is the one inverter doesn’t use solar since connecting SA to both units and batteries. As per the graph below, both inverters ran on solar unit Thursday night when I connected SA in its current state which is monitoring each inverter off the RS232 port and the Pylontech’s via the Pylontech cable. Prior to this, I was monitoring only the master and having the inverter running battery type Pylontech with the cable from the batteries to the inverter. My question is, is there any setting that can force the inverters to both use solar. If I power them off and just power the one it runs fine, it’s only when they in parallel this happens. From the forums, they mention allowing PV to exceed charge, but I can’t find a setting to change this on inverter or SA. As mentioned, it worked fine until I tried monitoring each device on its own. Even if I put everything back to what it was, it still only runs solar on the one inverter. Hope the above makes sense and you could point me in the right direction?
