How to commission the communication between lithium-ion battery and SPF 3500-5000ES

commissioning the communication between lithium-ion battery and SPF 3500-5000ES

• Firstly, Confirm if lithium-ion battery brand is in Growatt Lithium-ion battery compatibility list.

Note:

Pylontech UP5000 is same with US2000C US3000C, all of them can communication with off grid inverter

Battery brand in our list has been tested in our lab. Some other battery manufactors has matched our inverter modbus protocol type , but they havn’t been tested in our lab. So we don’t contain them in the list.

If your battery brand is not in our list, and clients hope to have the communication with our inverter. Here attached our SPF 485/CAN modbus protocol type. You can forward it to your battery manufacturer and try to match it.

• Battery Communication:

Pylontech Battery

• 485 Communication

Inverter side:

Please set Li 05 on 5th option, L04 on 36th option.

Pylontech Battery Side:

please set 1000(ON OFF OFF OFF)

485 PINOUT

• CAN Communication

Inverter Side:

Please set Li 05 on 5th option, L52 on 36th option

Battery Side:

please set 1000(ON OFF OFF OFF)

CAN PINOUT

Note: Inverter side has the same CAN pin definition with battery Side.

Because 485 communication has been tested in our lab. So communicaton is more stable. Pylontech and us suggest that 485 communication can be used for first priority.

Hope Battery

Please note that hope battery only has CAN communication. And hope battery just can work when BMS
communicaton with inverter is normal. Or it will shut off automatically

• CAN Communication

Please set Li 05 on 5th option, L51 on 36th option ; communication protocol type： L51 ;

For Single Hope battery:

For Single Hope battery in parallel:

Please make sure crystals plugs are inserted into head and tail of battery system, and connect other Link-in and LInk-out port one by one via connection wire in sequence.

CAN PINOUT

Both CAN pin Definition of inverter and battery side are the same. PIN4-CAN H PIN5 CANL

Note: Hope battery just has CAN communication, So our SPF 5000TL HVM with old communication board can’t use Hope battery. Please highlight this. If clients really want to achieve the function. The solution is to replace old com board inside inverter as newest one.

For Hope 3.3 KWH, MAX 6 PCS in parallel( But actually it can work in 8 pcs in parallel, we don’t suggest that ), MAX one group for Storage system, you can’t connect more than 1 group into same inverter.

For Hope 4.8KWH, MAX 16 PCS in parallel, MAX 2 groups fro storage system, Hub is not needed

Shoto Battery

CAN Communication ( Please note that Model: SDA10-48100, can’t be used in parallel with inverter, because in our lab., just single battery has been tested , if you want to confirm if multi batteries can work with our inverter, please contact battery manufacturor:

Clark Zhong +86-13451818328 [email protected]

Communication protocol type: L52 ( CAN communication protocol type ), please set Li 05 on 5th option, L52 on 36th option

CAN PINOUT ( Both inverter and battery use same CAN Pinout)

Freedom Battery

Please note Freedom battery is not in our compatibility list, it means that it is not tested in our lab. Some clients tell us that it can communicate with us. You can follow the guide below:

communication protocol type: L52 (CAN communication) please set Li 05 on 5th option, L52 on 36th option

CAN PINOUT ( Both inverter and battery use same CAN Pinout)

PIN4 -CAN L

PIN5-CAN H

Greenrich Battery

Please note Greenrich battery is not in our compatibility list, it means that it is not tested in our lab. Some clients tell us that it can communicate with us. You can follow the guide below:

communication protocol type: L52 (CAN communication) please set Li 05 on 5th option, L52 on 36th option

Dip Switch:

CAN PINOUT ( Both inverter and battery use same CAN Pinout)

PIN4 -CAN L

PIN5-CAN H

JinKo Battery

communication protocol type: L52 (CAN communication) please set Li 05 on 5th option, L52 on 36th option

CAN PINOUT ( Both inverter and battery use same CAN Pinout)

PIN4 -CAN L

PIN5-CAN H

How to commission battery communication

Tool:

USB-485 TOOL

COM Software TOOL

Commissioning method:

1. Make sure all settings are correct on battery and inverter
2. If above all settings are correct, while communication is still abnormal, you can connect USB-485 tool to your 485 connection wire in parallel, then try to receive communication data from inverter. If normal, you should receive data from inverter constantly.
3. The method is used to detect which part is something wrong, so that you can confirm the malfunction point.
