Battery Equalization Description
Battery equalization function is built into the charge controller. It reverses the buildup of negative chemical
effects such as stratification, a condition where acid concentration is greater at the bottom of the battery than
at the top. Equalization also helps to remove sulfate crystals that may have built up on the plates. If left
unchecked, this condition, called sulfation, will reduce the overall capacity of the battery. Therefore, it’s
recommended to equalize the battery periodically.
When to Equalize
In floating charge stage, when setting the equalization interval (battery equalization cycle) is reached, or
equalization is activated immediately, the controller will start to enter Equalize Mode.
42
However, in Equalize Mode, if the battery equalization timer runs out and the battery voltage doesn’t recover to
the battery equalization voltage point, the charge controller will extend the battery equalized time until battery
voltage achieves equalization voltage. If the battery voltage is still lower than equalization voltage when the
extension runs out, the charge controller will stop equalization and return to the floating charging stage.

Appendix I: BMS Communication Installation
1. Introduction
If connecting to lithium battery, it is recommended to purchase a custom-made RJ45 communication cable.
Please check with your dealer or integrator for details.
This custom-made RJ45 communication cable delivers information and signal between lithium battery and the
inverter. These information are listed below:
Re-configure charging voltage, charging current and battery discharge cut-off voltage according to the
lithium battery parameters.
Have the inverter start or stop charging according to the status of lithium battery.

ID switch
ID switch
ID Switch indicates the unique ID code for each battery module. It's required to assign an identical ID to each
battery module for normal operation. We can set up the ID code for each battery module by rotating the PIN
number on the ID switch. From number 0 to 9, the number can be random; no particular order. Maximum 10
battery modules can be operated in parallel.

Code Description
If battery status is not allowed to charge and discharge after the communication
between the inverter and battery is successful, it will show code 60 to stop
charging and discharging battery.
Communication lost (only available when the battery type is setting as any type
of lithium-ion battery.)
After battery is connected, communication signal is not detected for 3
minutes, buzzer will beep. After 10 minutes, inverter will stop charging and
discharging to lithium battery.
Communication lost occurs after the inverter and battery is connected
successfully, buzzer beeps immediately.
Battery number is changed. It probably is because of communication lost
between battery packs.
If battery status is not allowed to charge after the communication between the
inverter and battery is successful, it will show code 69 to stop charging battery.
