Renogy DCC50S Display

Hello again everyone, sorry to bump this thread again - But I have made great progress with the status module. It now talks to the DCC50S, and also my Renogy Rover over RS232 (As my panel is over the voltage limit on the DCC unit).

My work is here, for anyone interested: Tiggilyboo/vanny-hub (see RS232 branch for solar charge controller as well)

I came back to ask however if anyone has had any more luck with the Renogy Smart Battery? I am trying to figure out the modbus 485 over RJ45 pinout (it does not seem to be the same as the DCC50S unit? Unless I'm mistaken), I can start spamming read requests to figure out some basic figures from there...

Hi, unfortunately Renogy wouldn't give out the battery mappings due to safety concerns :confused:. I have got a Python driver to get a load of stats but it's not quite refined as not all the mappings are in there yet. It outputs the data to an MQTT Subscriber but could be anything I guess

Cheers, nearly there with all my devices in one reporting unit! It has been a blast to work on.
 
Hi
you can use the pylon console to retrieve data of your Renogy Smart battery.
maybe more sample to do reverse ing of modbus.

hi

i tested with arduino mega connected to the renogy smart batt with a rs485 and recorded the traffic.
my pc is also connected to the rs485 with a usb/rs485 and uses the renogy firmware update application.

Renogy firmware update app sends a 0x18, wait 10 sec , sends info[d]
after this point the bms is on debug mode.
command info, pwr, bat, you can check other commands from pylontech

Does this mean the battery isn't modbus? I can't see any modbus framing there. (the DCC50S is modbus)

Renogy bms is made by pylontech or maybe all battery is made by pylontech.
I use renogy battery firmware upadate software, I connect my PC to the up port with usb/rs485 . After i start the connection at 115200 baud. After the connection established, I stop the connection. After use putty serial com6 . From there I have access to the console debug of the battery. I know few command pwr shows power state, bat shows cell status, info shows serial number stuff.

My assumption is the initial mode is molbus , the debug console info said the device addr :48, port baud 9600.

I will do more serial capture...
 
Great, thanks for the detailed explanations. I'll try and capture the traffic between battery and the bluetooth dongle. I suspect it uses modbus only.
 
capture between the batt and btoo, at 9600 n81

my battery node is 48 0x30

How is this CRC being calculated?

I know from my DCC50S, if the CRC is wrong there will be no reply.

If I plug your hex into this calculator; Online CRC-8 CRC-16 CRC-32 Calculator the Modbus CRC16 result is 4A65.

My knowledge isn't enough to say what the byte order should be, but swapping them has got to be worth a try?
