ive been using https://diytechandrepairs.nu/raspberry-solar/ for logging from my 5048 Mk in 2019...

on the display i can read out, daily, monthly, yearly and total usage/production - does any1 now of a similar to above project that will save and present these figures in a database?

Xtractor: are you manually changing to ECO during the day?

wondering, can watchpower for windows connect via bluetooth ? or is it onlys for android devices? any have testet ?

How about another 4 panel mounted on the other roof with the same east/west orientation and connect them up 3S2P for the east facing panels and 3S2P for the west facing panels, all wired back to the controller so it receives a total of 3S4P but only a part of the day at full output from all 12 pane...

i can surely see that i was a little too greedy thinking i could go for a 4s2p setup for this inverter, and that might explain why i was kind of stable in my 3s2p setup with no dips, and now when i put on 2 more panels i got the dips. Actually it is running perfectly fine on a complete sunny day, bu...

Nope, it did not do any difference.. lots of dips now. :-/ ok, that was my own fault, i had put on more pv panels and now i exceeded the specs on the mk (150VoC) and above 115 MPPT, then i saw a lot of dips, now i am back to 3x40VoC and apprx 92-ish MPPT, now everything is back to normal, Now i hav...

Today i had several dips on my MK, and a few the last three days, prior to that i have not seen any dips in a lot of weeks, what i did change before the dips, was the charging voltage in float and bulk. now i have changed the settings again the other way, and i will see what will happen. the settin...

i got my bluetooth working yesterday - well it was with an other device. i will start logging for the freeze and dip occurence. and for the record my pip have been working off the grid now for a month with the load i am putting on it, so i am quite satisfied, except the two freezes i have seen. i am...

Wierd, i have borrowed a galaxy 3 running android 4.4.1 i think it was, it can see my television, but my MK it is not showing when searching bluetooth.

i will se if i can try with another android device. (not showing on my ios device either)

Did anyone have succes using an android device and bluetooth with watchpower app.

my samsung galaxy tab 3 cant find any bluetooth devices, do i have to activate bluetooth on the 5048mk ? i can see the bluetooth icon in the display.

I've just noticed that @suorama is running SCC firmware version 04.10, and doesn't seem to suffer the dips or freezes. Are all you others with these problems running SCC version 04.12 by any chance?

My version - which i have recorded two major freeze on, is running 01.10 on U4.

anyone know of a protocol manual? i would like to see if i can read out the daily, monthly and yearly production/usage.

Got a mail from mpp solar.. 2018 Mk models is with older hw version, we should not expect firmware update for bms for this one, from 2019 is new hardware, and should be delivered with newest firmware, no saying about a release of a new firmware for either, but apparently two different hardware versi...

Yes it did start the day after, i did not restart the unit. no freezes since,
on my graph it seems the PV goes to 0, but i think it is because of heavy clouds coming in. the unit still produces somewhat little power.

i hopw the firmware will soon get released. i will update too.

Suddenly today at 1530sh my pv wattage stopped outputting (the voltage remainded at 103ish voltage.) it has been running fine for a month now. here after a good hour it still not producing anything.. normally it would power my load. Sun is shining just fine. like the input module stopped working, wi...

@affer and @coulomb how do I get hold of Firmware 71.61 and how do I upload it to the inverter? Mustek is currently in contact with the manufacturer to try and find a solution to the freeze and dip issue but it might be solved as part of the 71.61 firmware update. i never did an update on a mpp yet...

Good day all

Affer what version firmware is on your machine?

Mine is running on 71.50. Might be interesting if it is different.

i am running version 71.61 on mine.. unit produced jan 2019

So no major dips in pv, and no freezes. I would say you had one dip at 14:30 on the first graph. Total charge current dipped to 10 A (utility charging), but SCC charge current dipped to zero. Edit: BTW: nice production till 9pm (PV voltage present till after 10pm)! (Denmark is approaching summer no...

Now it's my turn to ask:
@affer - what software are you using to get those graphs?

i use this image https://diytechandrepairs.nu/raspberry-solar/ with some settings in grafana by my self.

I dont see anything like you, ive used to have a 3024MSE but upgraded because i had more panels i would like to put on my roof. atm i have 3s2p setup 310wp per panel, i attached to pictures, one where the batteries where not suffucient and i started charge with 10a from utility and the second from t...

Which program?

is the above picture from jaco a readout from the mk5048 ?

Hello from denmark.. got a 5048mk on my wall with 3s2p 310wp panels... will follow this thread to get ideas :-D using the setup now for server gear and television in the house :-D https://scontent.faal2-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/59839723_10157750575164869_1224424068611047424_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&_nc_ht=...
