If a certain PV string connected to the 2-in-1 terminals is restored, the access type cannot be identified. You can determine whether both 2-in-1 PV strings are restored only when the PV string current reaches Startup current for 2-in-1 detection.

Configurable Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
Displays or sets the battery model. The system automatically identifies and displays the correct model. Generally, you do not need to manually modify the information. |
|
Sets the maximum power for battery charging. |
|
Sets the maximum power for battery discharging. |
|
If this parameter is set to Enable, the batteries can be charged from the power grid. |
|
Sets the maximum power for charging the batteries from the power grid. |
|
When the SOC of the battery reaches this value, charging stops. |
|
When the SOC of the battery reaches this value, discharging stops. |
|
When the SOC of the battery reaches this value, the grid stops charging the battery. |
Charge/Discharge
Parameter |
Description |
---|---|
Forced charge/discharge operation, which can be Charge, Discharge, or Stop. |
|
To enter the forced charge/discharge mode, set Duration or Target SOC. |
|
Sets the duration of forced charge/discharge. When the time is reached, the forced charge/discharge stops automatically. This parameter is displayed when Mode Settings is set to Duration. |
|
Sets the target SOC for forced charge/discharge. When the SOC reaches this value, the forced charge/discharge stops automatically. This parameter is displayed when Mode Settings is set to Target SOC. |
|
Current charged energy in this forced charge/discharge |
