I run a Pylontech/Multiplus2 Setup for years, and now started to build a new installation with MultplusII and a not so well known PowMR battery POW-LIO48100-16S. PowMR themselves state that they do work with VE systems, they also have settings for VE CAN protocol. But do not see anywhere parameter descriptions for the ESS Setup.
i would be glad if there is some others already successfully workign with this kind of setup.
A first generic question, better to use CAN VE or CAN Pylontech protocol, both is supported and can be configured. The Cable is a TypA pinout scheme.
All the following settings are unclear to me, maybe by knowing the 16S already would give all required background information to derive it…Thanks for hints and help Norbert
Oh, that is very good news. I will try it myself later today. Up to now, I haven’t been able to get the communication working properly at all. If I understand correctly, you can simply select and lock the Pylontech V2.06 protocol via the settings on the panel itself. I had read that this needed to be done via a computer and specific software, because otherwise the system would always revert to its original settings. But based on what you’re saying, that doesn’t seem to be true after all. I will give it a try later this week. Thanks a thousand times in advance.you are a lifesaver,
i yesterday spent some more time on this topic as recently i updated my 100Ah to another 100Ah, so chained them as a team of two batteries. All works and the overall 200Ah is recognized by VE, but right now i receive some HIGH VOLTAGE alarms when running into 100%. I reduced now the voltage limit to 55.0V. In general in Europe we right now have not the best solar weather, so it takes some days to see the effects it has.
Something most important for me is the fact that i now know what the BMS company is, and this is joyful, as its a major brand. PACE BMS, therefore its the PBMStools software to connect.
That said, as you do not find much about PowMR at all in forums, you find so much about how the PACE bms works. It is a fact that PACE has a rather bad “passive balancing” that can easily make cells drift, and that could be (at least now as my 2nd battery is new) reason for unbalanced as it will take some time to balance, which is the reason for overvoltage…..
So lets see how it all goes, at least im really happy that the BMS is for sure a PACE one, you can also see the same buttons, display,….when you google for PACE bms systems.
Regarding your comment of changing protocol, im also confused as a read the same about using the tool to change protocol, but at least what i see when i check “current” protocols in the panel, it stays as i changed it. not sure if this may be gone after a power OFF of the battery.
