Installation and Operation

PYLONTECH
After configuration, please install LCD panel with inverter and Lithium battery with the following steps.
Step 1. Use a custom-made RJ45 cable to connect inverter and Lithium battery.

Please take notice for parallel system:
1.

Only support common battery installation.

Use one custom-made RJ45 cable to connect any inverter (no need to connect to a specific inverter) and
Lithium battery.

Simply set battery type of this inverter to “PYL” in LCD program 5. The remaining inverters

are set as “USE”.

Step 2. Switch on Lithium battery.

Step 3. Press more than three seconds to start Lithium battery, power output ready.

Step 4. Turn on the inverter.

Step 5. Be sure to select battery type as “PYL” in LCD program 5.
