BMS Communications Demystified: Exploring EG4 Product Configurations

Join us in this informative session with David M, an electrical technician at EG4 Electronics, as he breaks down the BMS (Battery Monitoring System) communications on three distinct product configurations. Delve into EG4's cutting-edge technology as David walks us through the BMS functionality on the EG4 6000 XP paired with EG4 LifePower4 batteries, the EG4 6000 XP with EG4 LL-S batteries, and the EG418kPV featuring the WallMount All Weather battery. Gain valuable insights into how these configurations optimize performance and enhance your energy solutions. Stay tuned for an in-depth exploration into the heart of EG4's innovative power systems!

Thank you for the info! Could you quickly explain if we need to update the firmware on each battery separately, or can we just update the master battery? I couldn't find this info in any of the manuals or instructions provided with the batteries.

[@sammyboyde6489]

So do you have to update each NON LL type battery (regular Lifepower 4 battery) individually, or if you update the master does it apply the update to the other 5?

Yet again, it seems sig. solar has fallen short on the explanation of critical setup.... We need to know how to update firmware on a battery! The cable that we need is out of stock / backordered. Any help is appreciated!

Thank you for the video. Is there any way to add an external BMS to a set of 12v lithium iron batteries that don't have built-in communication ? It would be nice to have the closed loop feature.

[@cgutowski471]

Ugh. Why can’t EG4/Signature solar fully explain things. For the LL-S, do all batteries need to be set to LUX or only the master battery?

[@GavinStoneDIY]

Only the master.

[@davidparks1369]

Signature solar customer service is the worst.I asked if they could update a battery to run with 6000xp that I would gladly purchase and they said No.

[@davidparks1369]

No help whatsoever. How do you update battery
