Hi there, thanks again for all your help and the firmware. I eventually confirmed that the problem was the firmware update as you suspected. Instead of setting the batteries to Li in program 5, set it back to USE and communicate through the CAN port. Charging takes over properly and all good but don’t get the percentages showing up. If you do the firmware update then your instructions are on the money and both Pylontech/Growatt owe you a few beers. Much appreciated for your contributions and good luck with future projects!

Hi SiliconKid, thanks for your very informative installation process - it certainly saved me a lot of time and headache. I followed it all and I seem to get the same thing as you except for the charging and SOC reading it out in percentages. If I go through the menu, my battery program shows 100% and the even though the system made it through loadshedding last night, the inverter hasn’t charged the batteries. The “analog” LeDs have reduced though but the inverter still shows 100%. and still, when mains is back on, no charging. perhaps I haven’t set the charging options correctly but I’ve configured as per your instructions. Any ideas you might have?
