[RE-wrenches] Backwards compatibility Schneider

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

It will be some work to make this work right for you! The XWP is based 
on Soc and or V. If you use the Schneider bat mon, it will be a settings 
guess for Soc. You will have to do this yearly to compare BMS Soc to the 
input you set for the bat mon.  I doubt you will get this to work closed 
loop unless you use the discover AES and it's closed loop gear. (not 
xanbus). XW+ is missing the memory and is V only, to communicate with 
Evault thru gateway. Check with Fortress as I am using older info. They 
may have a way to use close loop gateway with their product.

The easy way here is to use XWP and not have any of the settings fiasco. 
It will charge Soc thru gateway to eVault BMS on canbus. Or use the 
Discover and go all xanbus and super easy set-up.

Iron Edison also makes LFP and they may shed some light. Ask them if 
they can close loop with Gateway and XW+
