April 27, 20215 yr Hi I just received new firmware from Pylontech for the US3000C. New version is 1.9. I used BatteryView 3.0.23 to upgrade my battery. See attached PDF. us_c_v1.9_Crc.bin Pylontech Low Voltage Battery Mornitoring and Maintenance Tool Guidance.pdf
April 28, 20215 yr Thank you Hanwilsch, much appreciated Are you able to get the latest .bin file for US3000B?

Some ascii text in the image. Being a binary blob, I haven't found the proper start address. It's possibly a mix of thumb and A32 instructions, i.e. Thumb 2. Edited December 23, 20214 yr by Coulomb
May 2, 20215 yr This firmware solved the error in a mixed packed. I have a master US3000C, US2000 and 3 x US2000+ modules. Working perfectly for the past 5 days.

August 27, 20214 yr Author Hi this from Pylontech: "I will send you the latest firmware through WeTransfer. But v2.2 has not much change, just some improvements on internal operation logic."
August 28, 20214 yr Hi using 3 Pylontech 3000 for more than 2 years and is functioning good from day 1. What will be the benefits if firmware is upgraded. Don't even know what firmware is loaded. Thanks

September 9, 20214 yr Hi Please tell me how the firmware is updated? I have a number of US3000C and would prefer to run them on the latest official firmware Thank you
September 9, 20214 yr Author You use Batteryview to load the firmware to the Battery via the Console port. If you Scroll up to a post from PurePower July 9, their is a link to another thread where you can download it and the instructions document.
October 15, 20214 yr Hi Guys We have a Victron System, Multiplus 48V5000 250/100 MPPT and 2 x Pylontech 3000A batteries. The System is set to ESS UPS mode as backup for ESKOM (Keep Battery Charged). In preparation for adding two more 3000C batteries, we upgrade the 3000A batteries from V1.3 to V3.4 as needed. We now have the Pylontech the Muliplus Charger cycling the Battery Voltage during the night (No MPPT input). There are no coms errorrs in any logs or module errors. Any ideas please, we check all the settings and all are the same as before the V3.4 upgrade. (Our dealer has no idea either) Interesting on the GX screen under Pylontech -> Parameters, the CCL is 0.0 (Daytime while MPPT is delivering power the voltage is 52.4V) Pylontech Batteryview V3.0.24:
October 15, 20214 yr Can you perhaps share your ESS and DVCC screens as well please? Worrying is that the battery view charge and discharge info went missing? I think, because of that the GX info reverts to 0 for CCL. Edited October 15, 20214 yr by Sarel
October 15, 20214 yr Thank you for the reply Sarel Here goes: With Limits added it,makes no difference: Previously we had LCC 74A LCV 54.2V ESS Assistant setup Edited October 15, 20214 yr by Randmental
October 15, 20214 yr I think your ESS was not setup correctly, it looks like from what you posted. Likely your dealer will have to fix this as it involves the VE.Bus setup using VE Configure. Have a look at this: Pylontech on ESS I take it the BMS Can port is connected to the GX (or the VE.Can port with proper speed adjustment) On the DVCC, as per the above article, the DVCC should read forced on, it's quite important. Chance are, in this case, some of the other required settings as per the article, may also then be suspect.
October 15, 20214 yr Hi Sarel, Thanks again fro assisting. We do have a MK3 and do our own firmware upgrades when necessary (being a technology company we like to understand and manage these things) I have added the ESS configuration above, perhaps after you replied? I attached the rvsc file below, if you have a momenet to upload and verify it for us. (VEConfigure) Thanks for the document link - that is the one we used to confirm the settings, plus the settings files we saved from before the V3.4 upgrade. We have kepty everything the same. Randmental_inst_ttyO1_Interfaces_Mk2_Tunnel.rvsc
October 15, 20214 yr Sarel, If I may ask, are this correct? We have no experience with the Pylontech batterries on this level, before the upgrade to V3.4 was done. This is only aspect we see that potentially cause those cycling ? Is it normal for these to fields be empty (Null)? Edited October 15, 20214 yr by Randmental
October 15, 20214 yr What is worrying is two factors, firstly that the DVCC is not forced on. Secondly that the Battery software is not supplying the charge and discharge current to the GX. Normally with a connected battery, the GX rely on that info. Will dig into you file a bit later….
October 15, 20214 yr 5 hours ago, Randmental said: I had a look at your config file and all checks out. The above image that you posted shows CCL as 0Amps. This info is communicated from the BMS to the GX. No matter what settings you do, these 3 comes from the BMS. The 2 Charge and discharge currents in Batteryview (shown as CCL and DCL above image seems to be related as described above. Have you tried resetting the batteries and the GX? Also what GX do you have, CCGX or something else? Have the GX comms cable perhaps been unplugged, or not plugged in correctly like in only partially or are there bent pins maybe?
October 15, 20214 yr Would you mind adding me to the VRM Portal for this install, it would be much faster to probe a few things?
October 15, 20214 yr Thanks you Sarel, appreciate your time - this all started after moving the two US3000A to the Version 3.4. I did press the SW red reset buttons today just icase, and reset the GX as well. The GX is the one in the large EasySolar Send me you details to randmental @gmail.com, then I add you to the remote access. regards
