No, I think it's like my FW. Mine shows 400+ cycles, but I was told by the FW tech that the actual cycles for the battery is that number divided by 2 * 0.8. That calculation may be specific to the FW 10/8 though, I'm not sure. I would do some research there. If you have 2 batteries then perhaps that number is for both... so 237 each?

The /2*0.8 makes me feel a bit better. I've had one hubble for just over a year and it's showing around 900 cycles, which is close to 2.5 a day. And I know i haven't cycled it that much, mostly around once a day.

No the other battery shows 470 cycles. Would probably need somebody with a RIOT to compare what it shows for cycles.
 
My inverter is showing as offline on Solarman, with the logger as online - but my inverter is working perfectly and is in fact online. Any ideas?
 
Came to ask about the maintenance. Mine came back for a bit buts offline again. Any idea what the window is? It flashed briefly on my screen but never had a chance to check it.
 
I've been thinking about this:
If eskom is off, no sun and batteries reach whatever % you've set it as limit, does the system just die ?
And if the sun is out/eskom back on, does the system just come alive and carry on as usual ?

Yes, you set the battery switch off voltage where the batteries BMS will switch off the output.
You also set the switch on voltage where the batteries will turn on again after charging to that level.

That’s what the Shutdown and Restart settings are for yes.

Shutdown = When battery powers down.

Restart = When inverter feeds battery back to system after charging back to that level.

The inverter will stay up while the batteries still have some charge but output from the inverter will die. The inverter will die if no power at all(lol obvious i guess).

When eskom/sun come back, then the battery needs to reach the restart % before the inverter will power loads again. Restart % specified under the battery section, it makes sure that you have enough battery to power loads without going on and off if eskom or solar isn't stable yet.

I'm not 100% sure if the system is completely dead if it will come on by itself. I turned off my inverter once and it came back on by itself when sun came out. I just used the on/off switch and I didn't turn off pv or battery fuses.

Where do you see these settings ?
NVM. Found this. Suppose it's been setup like this by the installer.

Seems Solarman is struggling again, see a new maintenace window for early tommorow again.
 
Anyone else still struggling with Solarman app? Or just me? Last update was nearly 8hrs ago.
 
:( I see on some forums other folks are also having partial. Even the deye cloud is showing nothing but it's too sudden, stopped at like exactly 8am. Hopefully this maintenance tommorow sorts it out otherwise will have to get installer to come back and check, maybe logger went faulty.

On the 8am
