    Very first thing you did wrong is you used 24 volt battery. It should have been 48 volts using just 2 80 amp controllers, or even better 96 volts.

    Lastly if you live in the USA selling power to the ePOCO from batteries is a LOOSER. You are giving away money. It will cost you around $1/Kwh in battery cost to sell a Kwh for 15-cents.

    The lights on the flexnet don't come on at all. Is it necessary to have in there? Do I have to do something to get my charge controllers to communicate with the mate3? Equalize won't run told I set up parameters. Can't find those set ups anywhere

Here's whacharge controllerst I have. 8kw divided into 2kw sections being controlled with 4 Morningstar Tristar TS-MPPT-60 charge controllers. I have an Outback Radian series GS8048 inverter/charger. It sits atop an Outback load center. In there is a Flexnet DC that doesn't seem to be doing anything. Mounted to the outside is a Mate3 that I can't seem to access all the settings I need to. I have 8 vmax solar tank batteries, 4 in series paralleled. I am grid tied with the ability to sell when the power company gets me the new meter. I really don't even know the right questions to ask, or where to begin.
    What, specifically, is your concern?
