Battery

The Battery Hub is a tailored tool designed to provide detailed data on each battery in your system, including how well they share energy with one another. This is critical for ensuring that all batteries are equally charged, which is essential for optimal system performance. By monitoring and analyzing the data provided by the Battery Hub, you can ensure that your system operates efficiently and effectively. With this information at your fingertips, you can identify potential issues, optimize energy usage, and ensure that your system operates at peak performance.
Depending on the product
Esite-Micro
If your Esite-Micro is equipped with lithium batteries, you can access data from the Battery Management Unit (BMU) of each battery on the system.

Paralleling Statuses
ℹ️ Only systems with lithium batteries require this paralleling feature to be able to share energy more effectively between batteries. If you have lead acid systems then this doesn't apply.
Systems will go through five stages of paralleling. Once the fifth stage is reached then the system should remain in that state for normal operation of the system.
| Paralleling Stage | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | The first time the paralleling process occurs must be at night time. If the primary controller has already started to parallel then other controllers can start the parallel process during the day. The first stage of this process is to determine if it is night time. |
| 2 | This stage starts the paralleling process. It detects if the batteries are at a high enough voltage to enable paralleling. If they are then they will continue to stage 3. If they are not then they will not continue paralleling at this time. |
| 3 | The batteries are paralleling during stages 3 and 4. During this stage the battery port may be enabled or disabled depending on if certain conditions are met. |
| 4 | During this stage the I/O port (aka. P3 port) may be enabled or disabled depending on if certain conditions are met. |
| 5 | This stage represents that paralleling is complete. |
