Once you press connect in SolarAssistant, you should see each pack show up under the battery section. If you make any cabling or dip switch changes, ensure you press disconnect and connect in SolarAssistant to rescan available packs.

Troubleshooting

If the battery is readable via the official SOK desktop software, then it will be readable by SolarAssistant. We recommend working on establishing a successful connection with the official software from a laptop.
