  1. Hi, I'm running ICC version 4.9 and monitoring itself works reasonable. My system has a 10 kW Voltronics Hybrid + 4x Pylontech US3000C, "gried-tie with backup (II) mode". Both are recognized by the software and the correct data is shown. Unfortunately there is no decent user manual available and I never received any response to my mails sent to [email protected]. Got only once a mail from "Manie" with the license, but no technical support, which is kind of strange. So maybe someone of you can help me 🙂 I thought that ICC can control charge and discharge of the Pylontech batteries based on the SOC. Is see the SOC in the software, but there seems to be no option to set the max. and min. SOC (want to keep the SOC between 90% and 10%). In another thread I have seen here that there is an option to use SOC for control, but this doesn't appear on my system. Is it not available with my setting? Currently it looks like the cut-off discharge and bulk/float charging voltages are used as upper and lower limit for the batteries, which is rather inaccurate. I see from time to time hughe spikes on the load, which are definitly not real. Have you seen that before? What can be set here? There is no explanation at all ... After PV is not available anymore at the evening, I see the following messages in the info logs? What does it mean? Does anyone know the commands which are sent by I2C? Otherwise I need to find out by myself with the logic analyzer. No information about this anywhere. Regards, Matt
  2. I have seen solar-assistant already, but there is even less technical information available than for ICC. And it seems there is no possibility to control GPIOs by specific SOC or anything else.
  3. Hi, I have an installation with 10 kW solar panels, 10 kW InfiniSolar hybrid and 3x Pylontech US3000C batteries. For monitoring I'm using ICC Solar software on a Raspberry. Generally, the system runs reasonable and is configured as "Grid-tie with backup (II)". he only thing is that I have a couple of questions regaring ICC Solar software, but I never received any response from them to the mails I've sent. Seems there is no customer support, also the manual is quite "lightweight", not providing any details . Therefore I would be happy if you could share any feedback 😀 Is there any possiblity to stop discharge of the battery at 25 % SOC, for example? Background is that I would have some buffer and never discharge the batteries completely. Besides that, it would also increase lifetime of the batteries. Is there any possiblity to limit charging to 90 %, for example? This would also increase the lifetime of the batteries. If found these settings, but it is not clear to me: "Info Log" shows these following messages. What does it mean? There is an option "Home Automation" to control relays based on different states (SOC, etc.). Does anyone have any information about the protocol / Commands used to control a relay board? I have plenty of Arduino boards and relays here which I want to use, don't want to spend money for any "special" boards. I assume these are rather simple commands. Regards, Matt
