<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi Jeremy,<div class="">I have a lot of LiFePo4 battery systems out there on the Outback platform and we ran into that issue also. The main issue with the Low SOC alarm is the blinking red light that tends to unsettle clients. The trigger for the Low SOC alert is adjustable though, and it\u2019s pretty easy to change the setting so that the Low SOC trigger is [more] appropriate for the LiFePo4 battery. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Look for" Flexnet Advanced Control" in the \u201cMATE3S\u201d Settings menu. You can change both the Low SOC trigger and the Critically Low SOC trigger values. Note that for some reason you cannot access these particular settings remotely through OpticsRE.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I really like having the FNDC data available through Optics RE so that I can check up on things remotely, and I\u2019ve found that the energy tracking seems reasonably accurate given that it was designed for lead acid technologies. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Feel free to reach out off list if I can be of more assistance. <br class=""><div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="">

<div class="">Does anyone have some recommend settings for the OB Battery monitor when using Lithiums </div>
<div class="">We installed a 600 hr pack at 48v </div>
<div class="">the MATE has been lately throwing a LOW SOC event. </div>
<div class="">I have reached out to the battery manufacturer, and used their recommended settings but they suggest to basically ignore the issue since the battery monitor was designed for lead acid batteries. </div>
<div class="">The site will have optics RE, so I don\u2019t really want to just do away with the FNDC. </div>
<div class="">I can\u2019t imagine I\u2019m the only one seeing this issue. Please contact me off list if you have some insight that needs a phone call. Happy holidays<br class="">
