Step-by-Step guide on how I connected two JK Inverter BMS's to a ‪@sunsynk‬ Inverter using CAN communication. It's been up and running for a while now and seems to be stable and working well.
I am currently running firmware version 15.11 on both JK BMSs. I had firmware version 15.17 installed on the JK BMS but it didn't seem to be working properly with the SunSynk Inverter... I explain more about the problem in the video.

Thank you Grant for your really helpful video's. I have done the downgrade to 15.11 but i have noticed that total soc in parallel is not calculating. I also noticed that when almost fully charged the BMS is not ramping down the charge currant limit. The JBD bms and the Pylontech US3000C was doing this perfectly on the Deye and and also on Victron. I am going to try going back to firmware 15.17 and Pylontech CAN mode to see if it solves this.

Hi Erik, I've now also upgraded to 15.17 and am using CAN protocol 002:PYLON on the BMS and all seems to be working, including SOC calculation (When using 001: Deye protocol with 15.17, I was getting a Request Force Charge command which wouldn't allow the battery to discharge... I made a video about this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLuRermXuafOk5c.html but I think you have seen this video already). Thanks for your comments.

Hi Grant, I have a Solis hybrid 5KW inverter, and I'm using it with 16 EVE 304 cells and a JK inverter BMS with an active balancer. I've been running this setup for the past five months. The JK BMS communicates the state of charge (SOC) to the inverter, but the SOC keeps drifting over time. Here's the issue: even when the BMS indicates a 100% SOC, the voltages drift slightly lower with each cycle. Over the weeks, the SOC gradually drifts, so while it shows 100%, each cell and the overall pack voltage are slightly lower than the previous cycle. If I adjust the battery capacity settings, the BMS resets to 70% SOC, and the inverter charges another 3 or 4 kWh. This SOC drift is frustrating because on cloudy days, my 16 kWh battery effectively only charges to 11 or 12 kWh. The remaining 4 kWh stays uncharged because the BMS incorrectly reports 100% SOC to the inverter. To fully charge the battery, I have to keep changing the capacity settings in the BMS back and forth. Is there a way to use this inverter without CAN communication or by setting it as a generic battery? If anyone else has the same issue or knows a solution, please comment and suggest how to fix this problem. Thanks!

Hi Jason, Yes, you can use those different version together. I haven't tested this myself but Andy from Off-grid Garage has and it works. I don't think they need to be the same firmware but firmware earlier than 15.11 seems to be buggy so hopefully yours are 15.11 or later (for hardware version 15 of course).

Big thanks for all the explanations. Just installed 2 batteries in parallel and got all the comunication working. What is the best option to wire the batteries? Since they are in parallel, I connected the inverter to positive terminal on battery no.1 and then the negative terminal on battery no.2. Is it correct?

@GrantBurton 2 ай бұрын

It’s a pleasure. Best option would be to use a bus bar arrangement to connect batteries in parallel… something like the Victron Lynx Distributor for example (there are also cheaper more DIY options available). Short of using a busbar arrangement, if it’s only two ‘low’ powered batteries (maybe 2 x 5kw/h), I’ve seen a few people installing a DC Fuse block/holder (like this www.apator.com/en/our-solutions/electricity/switchgear/rbk-fuse-switch-disconnectors/rbk-pro/rbk-00-pro#technical-data) and connecting the top to the inverter and the bottom is connected to each of the batteries (each with their own positive and negative wires) - Two positive lugs from the batteries are bolted back-to-back using a 8mm bolt to the fuse holder and the same for the negative wires. Either way, a person should always check with the installer / electrician if it’s part of a house installation, since the installation needs a Certificate of Compliance.

@GrantBurton Ай бұрын

Hi... I have used the JK Inverter BMS with 105a/h cells for 3 months and it will balance all cells well after each full charge and I don't have to make any adjustments once the BMS is setup correctly... I have the 1A balance current version PB1A16S15P (but with larger capacity cells, you might need the JK Inverter BMS with a 2A Active balancer). On the JK Inverter BMS you can set the voltage that you want to represent 100% SOC (Example - I have mine set at 3.449v/cell) and the voltage that you want to represent 0% SOC (Example - I have mine set at 2.64v/cell). If your Pace BMS is only discharging down to 80%, maybe the Cell Under Voltage protection is set too high? or there is some other limit that the BMS is reaching? I am not familiar with the Pace BMS. Maybe it's your inverter stopping the discharge at 80%? I am using two JK Inverter BMS's in parallel, and connected to a SunSynk 10kw single phase Inverter using CAN communication and it's working well up to now. There are other JK Inverter BMS videos with testing that you might want to watch... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bad1a85h286-gIk.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtJ-qc-Zu5qyimQ.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLuRermXuafOk5c.html

Dear Grant. I have some problem about the communication between JKBMS and inverter. Now my BMS firmware is V15.17. I installed 2 battery in parallel. The Device id of first battery is 0(master unit). The Device ID of second battery is 1(slave). When I connect the master unit to inverter(CAN port). the inverter can't communicate with master battery. But If I move the communication cable to slave battery. The inverter can communicate and read any information of slave battery. But the inverter doesn't recognize a master battery. What should I do?

Hi Grant. Thanks for the great video. Unfortunately I am still struggling to get the communication between a JK BMS (PB2A16S20P) and a Sunsynk 16kw inverter with Version 1.11.13. I have checked and I am using CAN protocol 1. DIP switches are set to all off (Address 0). Cable is in the second RJ45 and connects to the CAN port on my inverter. Is there something that needs to be set in the inverter? The JK BMS is on software version V15.10. Hardware version V15.XA. I also tried a second JK BMS as I have two and get the same result. Any thoughts on where to look. Could it be the inverter firmware that requires update?

@GrantBurton Ай бұрын

Hi Leonard, I've only ever tired to use firmware version 15.11 and 15.17 on the BMS and both of them are able to connect and communicate via CAN. Check the user manual for your Inverter to be sure, but according to my manual (10kw Inverter) the CAN protocol on the inverter needs to be set to 0. It's at 02:49 in this video... see the note that pops up on screen. If yours is set to protocol 1, it's likely trying to use the RS485. You could try update the firmware to V15.11 and then set CAN protocol to 001:Deye or 002:Pylon... both of those should work. Are you using the ethernet cable that came with your Inverter? Let us know if you come right.

Then disconnect that battery and connect the other battery. Let the other battery fully charge and top balance. This way both batteries should be at the same voltage (or very close).

Hello from India.. I am facing a peculiar issue .. with my deye. When my SOC is below 20 percent (actual SOC 18%)and I am on full off-grid mode at night without solar and grid. In SOC below 20% if I turn off and turn my inverter. I don't get the output Battery mode selected lithium Restart set at 3% I have tried setting 0% also But no avail. It wont turn on the load until I turn on the grid or change mode to percent mode. Now two things again If I turn on the grid .. the load turns on.. and if I immediately turn off the grid the load still keeps running. Case 2 no grid.. butnif inchange battery mode to percent mode from lithoum.. then the battery percent starts showing as 87% although my SoC in battery is actually 18% .. it starts the load after 3 mins. Now case 3 .. my mode is in lithium and no load But as I pull my comm cable the percentage turns to 87% again and the load starts.. So now conclusion: Deye is below 20%. In no grid no solar .. load doesn't turn on if restarted in no grid and no solar. Means whenever in no grid and no solar deye reads SOC as 20 or below it doesn't turn on. Tried every solution didn't help pls help in case you knowm even deye engineers don't know. Anything above 25 percent the load turns on without grid without solar ( pure backup mode) even if I turn off and turn on.. I get the load output .. only issue is below 20 Jk bms V 15.17
