  • The COM3 port is reserved. Do not connect any cable to the port.

Connecting the PE cable

NOTICE

  • Connect the PE cable first before installing the equipment. Disconnect the PE cable before dismantling the equipment.
  • Make sure that the drawing force of the cable after crimping is greater than 400N.
  • The PE cable should be prepared by the customer. Recommended specifications:
  • Type: single-core outdoor copper cable
  • Cross-sectional area: 4-6mm2

Connecting the Power Cable
WARNING

  • The DC cable should be prepared by the customer. Recommended specifications:

  • Type: single-core outdoor copper cable

  • Conductor cross-sectional area S: S=6mm2 or S=16mm2

  • When the cross-sectional area range of the conductor is 6mm2, a 6mm2 DC connector
    (included in the deliverables) should be used. The drawing force of the cable after crimping should be greater than 500N. DC cables in this range can only be used to connect a single battery system. Do not cluster battery systems together as this may result in damage to the system.

  • When the cross-sectional area range of the conductor is 16mm2, a 16mm2 DC connector
    (included in the deliverables) should be used. The drawing force of the cable after crimping should be greater than 500N.

  • It is recommended to use a YQK-70 hydraulic plier to crimp the DC terminal of the battery. When the cross-sectional area of the conductor is 6mm2, the crimping dies with an “8” should be used, when the cross-sectional area of the conductor is 16mm2, the crimping dies with an “16” should be used.

  • If the recommended hydraulic plier cannot be purchased, please choose the crimping tool according to the terminal size to ensure that the crimped terminals meet the usage requirements.

  • Do not remove the cover of the DC cable port if the DC cable is not to be connected. Otherwise, the protection degree may be influenced.

1.   Adjust the module position to ensure that the PCU and battery modules are stacked without misalignment.

2.   Remove the cover plate of the battery module wiring port.

The indicator light goes out and the battery switch trips

during operation.

| ****

Cable short circuit or internal failure of battery system.

| 1.   Check for short circuits in external cables.

2.   Power off and wait for 2 hours, then

power on.

The red button indicator light blinks, the SOC light shows battery level, and there is no “click” sound when the relay is closed| 1.   Communication fault.

2.   Battery model setting

error in SolarGo APP.

| 1.   Check if the terminal resistor of COM2

port is installed correctly.

2.   Check if the communication cables are correct.

3.   Check if the inverter is working properly.

4.   Set the battery system model through

the SolarGo App.

5.   If the problem persists, long press the multi-function button for 5s to 10s then release it, confirm if there is a “click” sound from the relay, and report the situation to the dealer.

System Troubleshooting
The battery system may power off automatically and some functions may not work properly once the battery system fails. Perform troubleshooting according to the following methods. Contact the after-sales service if these methods do not work. Collect the information below before contacting the after-sales service, so that the problems can be solved quickly.

  1. Battery information, such as: serial number, software version, when the device was installed, when the fault occurred, how often it occurred, etc.
  2. Ambient environment, such as: weather conditions and installation environment. Photos, videos and other files can be provided to assist in the analysis of the problem.
