RenierdT Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) Hi. I have Grawatt SPF5000ES inverter and a pylontech us3000 battery.. I followed the instruction manuals to the letter but I get a error code 20. BMS communication error.. I also found useful info on this forum, followed the instructions (some of the models differs and do not all have the same communication ports, I think) but I still get the same error. I was told that the standard communication cable in the pylontech battery pack is the problem and that they are trying to source the correct cables form China. That might take forever. I am a novice at this solar thing. Has anyone had the same problem or know were I can purchase the correct cable. Thanks Edited September 7, 2020 by RenierdT Quote
francois Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) If you have the pin-outs of the correct cable you can have it made up by someone like an IT shop. Edited September 8, 2020 by francois Quote
Ianvn Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) I had the same problem with my growatt inverter + dyness battery. I ended up having to wait 2 weeks for a replacement cable. After plugging in the cable everything was working 100%. Like said by francois, you could also try to make a cable using the configurations in the manual. I know we tried and that didn't work. But that can just be something we did wrong. Edited September 8, 2020 by Ianvn Quote
RenierdT Posted September 9, 2020 Author Posted September 9, 2020 Got this feedback form China and followed the steps. Seems to be working If Pylon battery want to build communication with inverter（SPF3000/5000TL HVM/WPV/ES）： Inverter side setting：program 05-36-L02/L04（SPF3000/5000TL HVM）， program 05-36-L52（SPF5000TL HVM-WPV/SPF5000ES）， Inverter port：BMS port（SPF3000/5000TL HVM）， CAN port（SPF5000TL HVM-WPV/SPF5000ES）， Battery side DIP switch：1000----ON OFF OFF OFF Battery port：RS485 port（SPF3000/5000TL HVM）， CAN port（SPF5000TL Quote
Chris1 Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Hi Renierd, Any news after the above settings? forward me your number i am having the same issue. Quote

How are you finding the combo of 5000 es and US3000? Did you manage to get it all working smoothly? I've seen many people having trouble with the 5000tl hvm and us3000 so wondering if your combo is the one to go for. Many thanks Quote
roadkill Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Hi guys, did anyone eventually get this right? I have US3000C and SPF5000ES Couple things i noticed. Pylontech sent me a document with the pin layout and firmware versions required for the different battery and inverter models, but it did not list SPF5000es. as per the manual the configuration is rs485 Cross Pin. However the SPF5000es manual states it is a PIN to PIN. The Cable that comes with the Pylontech, is a standard UTP Cat5 Cable, see documents attached. Quote
roadkill Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 It worked with the settings from pylontech Quote
L_D Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 My system is very similar: Growatt SPF 5000 ES Single Pylontech US3000C Lithium battery We also kept on getting Error 20's and also error 4. We could not get it to connect via RJ45. What did work for us was plugging into CAN port on the battery and inverter. Then on the inverter you set the input to CAN and most importantly use Protocol 52 Everything worked from there on. LD PS: Battery dipswitches are 1000 (On,off, off, off) Inverter set to Profile L02 which then displays "Li" on screen. Quote
Buyeye Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 Does anyone have 2 more pylontechs connected to the can port. I'm eyeing 2 up5000 to connect to mine. Quote
NormEAT Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Hi guys, I have 5kva ES with 2 Pylontech 3.55kWh. 12 x 420 panels 2 strings of 6 panels to make a parallel connection into the inverter. I keep getting warning 43, battery over temperature. Coms is vai Can, the master is set to dip settings 1000 link port 1 and goes into the slave link port 0. One battery goes into 43, then I reboot it works, then there other goes into 43, the first one works fine. They alternate like that... Now I can't clear warning 43 anymore. Quote
Buyeye Posted May 10, 2021 Posted May 10, 2021 @NormEAT Hi are you sure the batteries are not overheating because that is serious and will degrade the life that you will get put of your batteries. Quote
Martha Bako Posted September 6, 2021 Posted September 6, 2021 Hi, I have a Growatt SPF5000TL-X & Growatt battery, my technician failed to install. Keep getting error message BMS and inverter won't work off grid. Please help Quote
Big-Mike Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Just for sharing: Growatt SPF5000SE and Pylontech US2000 B Plus, manufactured September 2021 Setting in GROWATT: 1. 005 => LI 2. 036 => 52 Battery DIP switches: the first needs to be "on", all others depends how many battery groups you have. I'm using the RJ45 cable that comes with the pylontech cable kit; it has blue labels: one end is marked "battery", the other "inverter". On the inverter, the cable is plugged into the BMS port. On the battery, the cable is plugged into the CAN port. Battery Specs from the "info" command executed on the battery console: Manufacturer : Pylon Device name : US2KBPL Board version : PHANTOMSAV10R03 Main Soft version : B67.10.0.1 Soft version : V3.0 Boot version : V2.2 Comm version : V2.0 Release Date : 21-06-07 Hope this helps, Quote
Filip2018 Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Ahoj, mohu mít také dotaz? Mám Growatt 5 kw a na displeji pořád chyba BMS COM fault. Já, ale žádné baterie nemám. Dá se chyba odstranit? Quote
Strauss Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Hi i have high voltage error on my spf5000 hvm wpv p use lithium settings 01 for dyness rs485 cable and battery dip on 0110 any suggestions Quote

You can also send your battery to Rectron, and update the firmware to solve the problem.（Updating firmware is free） Thanks Quote
Strauss Posted February 8, 2022 Posted February 8, 2022 Ok thank u Dyness are there any other protocol i can use for rs 485:0110 the 52 protocol on can 0100 gives random trips Quote

This now with latest firmware on the inverter, still get the same. NOTE: This is with SPF5000TL-HVM inverter and Dyness B4850s. So it seems to be a general issue and not something with my install then? Quote

Other than carting them all to Rectron? Quote

I'm trying to help someone get their dyness battery talking to the Growatt 5000 ES via BMS. After configuring it, all looks fine, but then randomly trips and recovers until switching it back to US2 settings. This is using 0010 on dip switches, via CAN cable, protocol 52.

Farhaan Posted March 19, 2022 Posted March 19, 2022 Hi, could successive help me with settings on my battery and inverter. Inverter is growatt 5000es and battery is greenrich 3686.
