    <p>            I missed your reference to OB/Simpliphi offering a
      "close the loop" to mean closed loop comm.  They are working on
      it, I'm sure its a big job.</p>

      <p>Bill,</p>
      <p>Unless I am mistaken the new Ampliphi 3.8 is still not closed
        loop with much other than Solarark. The old line of their batts,
        well has now been improved but not there yet until they get
        closed loop done! IMHO.</p>
      <p>Until Outback is capable of closed loop BMS into optics and
        their network I am going to stay with Schneider Discover AES and
        Fortress. It just is too easy and reliable to me than spend time
        on open loop power systems. After you try a closed loop system
        you ask yourself, what are setpoints? Why am I 25% faster
        charging with a genset. Wow true C1 charging!</p>
      <p>I respect your opinion but I was spoiled early on with closed
        loop. Have a good week! Bring on the rain!</p>

        <p>Dave,</p>
        <p>            I just went through a thorough
          installation/programming regime for an Outback FlexPower2
          married to 8, SimpliPhi 3.8's.  Outback and SimpliPhi have
          spent a great deal of time developing setpoints for several of
          OB's products in a 23 detailed page integration guide.</p>

          <p>Something is wrong with your programming of the monitor!
            Does the battery make give you parameters to program, they
            should! This is not normal with what I have seen.  Reading
            state of charge on a monitor that does not have a BMS
            feeding Soc to it, is for indication only. It is a moveable
            feast and a PITA!  I do not know why Outback has chosen to
            not partner with battery companies and close the loop for
            LFP like Schneider has? Anyone know why they will not do
            this?</p>
          <p>Lightning/gensets, and grid power can damage electronics
            and even though they may still seem to be working, they are
            damaged.</p>
          <p>Probably best to start logging in case there is something
            deeper!  Good Luck! </p>
