[RE-wrenches] Backwards compatibility Schneider

[Bradley Bassett]

I have an XW5548+ with Gateway and Discover AES battery and can vouch that it works slick.

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.
