Operation
Battery Tab
The items under this tab affect the Mojave inverter’s interactions with the Mojave ESS lithium-ion
battery (see page 55), particularly battery charging. Under
Battery Model
, this battery is
represented by
Mojave BMS
, which is pre-selected in the inverter.
The selection of
Mojave BMS
will automatically load all Mojave battery and charging parameters
into the inverter. It will enable operation of the Battery Management System or BMS (see page 45).
Only a few selectable options will be featured onscreen, as shown below.
IMPORTANT:
Follow all steps for Mojave battery installation on page 56. Make certain the BMS cable
is connected.
The following items will appear.
Battery Model
— Once BMS communications are detected, the model selection is automatically set to
Mojave BMS
. No other battery models are supported for the Mojave ESS.
Max SOC (%)
— Range:
60
to
100
. Default:
100
.
The uppermost SOC for the charger to work. See page

.
Min SOC (%)
— Range:
10
to
60
. Default:
50
.
The lowest operating point for the inverter. See page

Battery Parameters
Low and High Battery Limits
Max SoC (%)
: After reaching maximum SoC (state of charge), the charger turns off. Setting this item
to less than 100% could result in the battery becoming undercharged.
Min SoC (%)
: This selection is the lowest operating point for all functions that discharge the batteries.
When the batteries reach
Min SoC (%)
, the inverter will begin a new charge cycle.
The system graphic under the
STATUS
view will show the system’s measured SoC. (See page 17.)
If no charging source is available, the inverter will remain inactive until a source becomes available.
Below this point is the reserve battery supply for inverter basic functionality when no AC source is
present. This battery reserve is required to boot the inverter’s internal functions.
All other battery functionality is controlled and set by the BMS. See page 45.
