October 26, 20214 yr I have the same issue. I have recently purchased the ICM software and raspberry PI from Diversified Solutions. At the time of the purchase, Diversified Solutions did not a cable in stock for this battery. I went to Dartcom to purchase the cable and was able to install the Three Axpert Mecer Inverters, and struggling with the getting the Narada 48NPFC150 (Battery Module for Telecom) to communicate with the SOC on the Raspberry PI software. Can someone please assist in this regard.
December 11, 20214 yr Hi I have a Deye 8Kw with 2 x Narada 48NFPC150 batteries, getting a 3rd one one Monday. My installer set my inverter up to use voltage to monitor the batteries, but this is not working! This morning the Solarman app said I had 48% left, and I went and had a look on the batteries and they were both 15%! I am desperately looking for either proper settings or a way to get this lot to tlak to each other

Using voltage to estimate the SoC of an LFP battery is never going to work, except for the coarsest guess, like is it nearly full or not. Your installer should have known better. If you can't get them to talk, then you may have to resort to a coulomb counter like a Victron BMV.
January 24, 20224 yr I am resurrecting this thread because according to Deye support, Narada batteries now are supported, though this needs to be verified. I however have not been able to get it right, yet (I hope). Apologies, somehow this thread showed up when searching for Deye AND Narada, but I now see that it was actually about Axpert + Narada BMS comms, so I've started my own thread.

I contstantly (At least once per week) have to go to settings:Inverter MQTT and under Inverter connection" change it to serial (RS232) then choose different connections under "serial(rs232) selection" until one works. You have to reboot the raspberry each time in between.
April 3, 20224 yr I have three Narada 4.8 batteries of which two BMS's are faulty. Does anyone know where I can have it repaired? Francois Raath
April 21, 20224 yr I have ordered a s15 100Amp BMS from Bidorbuy which is on its way. If you are interested you may have the two faulty BMS's for free. Send me an email at [email protected] Live in Bellville Cape Town
July 10, 20223 yr Came upon this thread looking for reliability reviews of the NPFC100 Narada Batteries. I have purchased 2. The Narada software was given to me by the vendor and a cable also provided. The cable is an RS232 DB9 TYPE PLUS a Converter to Rs485/422. only 2 wires on the rs 485 connector are attached as given in the manual. This arrangement allows monitoring on a laptop but will obviously not integrate into older inverter systems like outback which I run.

December 13, 20223 yr Hi All I know this is an old thread, but was wondering if you can solve a dilemma im having with the Narada batteries. I have noticed that the narada batteries are not holding a constant voltage during the SOC cycle and actually start at the set voltage and drop to around 42v at the end of their cycle. Is this common with these batteries. Im helping my friend that has this battery, we are monitoring through solar assistant, the battery code is 45NPFC200, very strange as i only find data sheets for 48NPFC200, not 45?? His is linked to a growatt 5000es inverter. Even on the 48NPFC200 data sheet they have tables showing output in hours and the voltage reduction to 42v. I myself have dyness batteries and see they dont ever drop voltage below 48v through a cycle. Was just wondering if you guys are experiencing this as well.
