    Any experts capable of cracking this faulty system?

    I had not seen that Error 4 could be reference low battery. That's interesting.

    Any experts capable of cracking this faulty system?

    Any experts capable of cracking this faulty system?

    I never really know when its going to go out. Everything seems fine, then its not. But Im also not out there every hour checking it. Its kinda like diagnosing cancer. Everything seems good, but underneath theres something stinky brewing but its so slow and silent you just cant know.

    Any thoughts on the 4p error? Do you think this is because I had the panels connected incorrectly?

    others are telling me to put all PV's in one series, but you're telling me I can't parallel mismatched strings. Can you clarify?

    Totally stumped on a new eg4 3kw install

    Might have been longer. I got the batteries from 10 something to 12.7/9. That's all I recall. My first attempt at connecting everything was 2 weeks ago. I went on vacation and had to wait for another battery to be shipped, so I forget the actual times.
