January 16, 20233 yr Hi Everyone. I am also experiencing issues with setting up my battery type as Li on my 5kva Growatt Inverter. I am running my battery type setting as AGM.Is it safe to do so ? However i have managed to find a N Energy 4.8 Manual. I will attach it shortly. Has anyone found a solution on the growatt inverter?

January 17, 20233 yr Hi Guys. So I also have a communication fault between the Luxpower and Dyness (BX51100) battery. I changed the battery type to lead-acid with the associated voltage parameter settings. That seems to resolve the communication issue (or probably negate the need for communication). I used the app and the interver HMI to do the setup initially, however the inverter still didnt charge the battery. Only when I entered the settings on a laptop (https://af.luxpowertek.com/WManage/web/config/inverter) did it work. Below is a pin diagram I received from Luxpower tech support ([email protected] - they are very quick to respond). Unfortunately this is not the fualt in my case, so the communication fault remains an issue if anyone has any advise it will be appreciated... Edited January 17, 20233 yr by jfg

I also have what I assume is a BMS communication problem. Have a Lux-Power 5kW SNA inverter and 3x3.6kWhr Mecer (Dyness) batteries. Only when Escom is off and on "Lead-Acid" the inverter take load no problem, but as soon as its on Li-Ion ("8" for Dyness) it refuse to take load even below 10%. When Escom is on however, no problem, it take load supplied from solar and/or batteries (grid on zero). The supplier did a firmware update but still the issue is not resolved. Please let me know if you get any info that might be relevant to my situation. Edited January 18, 20233 yr by Theog17

I found out the Luxpower PIN configuration changed recently, so likely the LAN cable supplied with the Dyness battery and marked for Luxpower is probably incorrect / outdated. The LAN cable should be a strait pin to pin configuration. I did the installation for my Skoonma - haven't been back to see if that will resolve the issue, but I believe it should. Please let me know if you've tried this and/if you found another solution.

After multiple firmware updates and a different cable, it seem to be working now. Almost through load-shed and its taking load for a change without tripping, so I'm hoping thats the end of my issues .

Inverter can see battery percentage, voltage, etc. but does not charge battery and even when mains is on it uses the battery instead of power from mains. Never mind, managed to sort it out.

Battery Pylontech US3000C (two in parallel) are not charging. Looks like inverter see the battery? at least it shows capacity and current charge value but does not charge the battery at all. Thanks.

Inverter - RS485/CAN port PIN 1 = RS485B PIN 2 = RS485A Battery - RS485 port PIN 7 = RS485A PIN 8 = RS485B Battery DIP switches = 1 0 0 0 Battery settings on Luxpower: Battery option 3 - Lithium Battery type - 18 or 21 Hey @MetaB Just wanted to reach out and say thanks I used your pinout today on a Luxpower SNA and it worked brilliant and inverter setting to 21 on brand worked like a charm for me.

If it is a LuxPower SNA, all dips on your battery must be in of position, use can cable and try lithium battery brand 2, remember to set all your charge and discharge settings again as they default when changing battery settings. Also on your application settings change ac first start time to 00:00 and ac first end time to 23:59 if using inverter as a ups. Hope this will help.
February 28, 20233 yr I have a 5kw Ouco inverter and lithium up 5000 pylon tec battery. Since an update accrued last week the inverter does not charge the battery from the grid and just runs it down during the night. Could be a communication issue or I don’t really know what the issue is? Any help or support? Thanks

August 3, 20232 yr Hi there. I have the SNA5000 WPV Luxpower inverter with a 100AH 5120wh enersol battery. Can someone provide me the pins for the communication between the inverter and the battery please?

I've seen the following mentioned: Battery brand Protocol set to 12 Only Dip 1 on battery switched on If inverter serial number starts with 228 or higher then use a normal network cable If inverter serial number starts with 227 or lower then use a crossover network cable
August 17, 20232 yr @Deonjv @Ruan1983 @RiaanC Apparently (I don't have them so can't confirm) the N Energy batteries works as follows: Straight cable Brand 8 (Dyness) Can Port All dips off

August 28, 20232 yr Hi Everyone, I just got the luxpower 5000 with Dyness 5.12 combo. Inverter cannot connect to battery using lithium ion with brand 8 setting. Got it connected on lead acid. Used cable sent with Inverter and connected exactly as instructed. Is cable a problem? Want to connect Inverter to battery via lithium ion setting. Higher end product, so expect it to work without these glitches. Please assist
