mecer 5kva SOL-I-AX-5P settings help

[TheChamp]

What battery type have you selected? Someone I know has an Axpert King, it works fine on USER but wails when you select Pylon, which was supposed to be an improvement with pre set settings for Axpert and Pylontech. So if it's not on USER try that and set your values as required.

Try set it as LA battery with no coms?

Will give that a try, which option would it be?

Currently it is on LIF LiFeP04, I can set it to user but not sure where to find the actual user settings to change.

Then set voltages manually.

I can set it to user but not sure where to find the actual user settings to change the voltages, I have looked everywhere but cant for the life of me find where to change the voltages.

Try GEL then.

Will give that a go.

What do these presets change? Do they change the voltages etc?

Yes, voltage and charging current, all your other settings remain, should also check your battery cutoff voltage, not sure of it's part of the settings.

Also do you have a manual? It's easy to do all the settings from the UI panel, it's the same for most if not all Axpert type, long press the enter button, it goes into settings mode, scroll through settings, modify and enter to save, kanjalo kanjalo until they are all done.

Correct, but to LFP they're like:

I do have the manual, there is no indication in the manual about a enter long press but did see by chance trying it myself that if you long press the esc button it seems to enter some sort of settings mode which gives me battery voltage etc but cannot change anything.

Perhaps I should try to change battery to use, reboot the inverter and try to see if it allows me to get to the user settings.

I will try long press enter this afternoon to see if we get anywhere with that, but I think it might be best for him to part ways with this inverter and try get something more up to date with current times.

@TheChamp @wingnut771 no luck with the settings so have used the gel preset and will see what happens when he switches over to util tonight.

Sorry, coms between battery and inverter.

Sorry, coms between battery and inverter.

There is no coms cable plugged in between the battery and inverter.

Do you mind just uploading the manual then people can double check it if they see anything.

Do you have the battery manual?

Looks like voltage settings are 06, 07 and 08.
