4x Shoto Battery Bank Connections

Featured Replies

Hi Everyone

i just installed a 4th battery, 2nd inverter and 8 more panels for some reason. My installer did not take note of my connections for solar assistant (nor did i after i got it working the last time)

I need some help with the connection please. So i have SA connected directly to the master inverter

I know i need another cable for the 4th battery but i cant even see the other 3 im guessing its because its in a bank. DIP Settings all good

Set them exactly like this:

Battery 1

  • Switch 1 = ON

  • All others = OFF

Battery 2

  • Switch 2 = ON

  • All others = OFF

Battery 3

  • Switch 1 + 2 = ON

  • All others = OFF

Battery 4

  • Switch 3 = ON

  • Switch 7 = ON for Termination

  • All others = OFF
