Hi. Nice work helping needy people.

I need help in connecting Sacred Sun Battery (SCIFP48100 model) having only RS232 and RS485 ports with Solis Hybrid inverter 6KW (S6-EH1P6K-L-Pro). But the inverter communicate through CAN port only for BMS.
How to connect battery RS485 port data to Inverter CAN port? .. please help.

Hi,
I would need the RS485 communication protocol specification for the Sacred Sun BMS. The Solis understands the PylonTech CAN protocol so that's no problem.

To setup a system with this application you will need a Raspberry PI with a RS485/CAN hat.

Thx for reply...
I don't know exactly about the RS485 communication protocol specification for the Sacred Sun BMS. However, battery can be connected/accessed with PC via RS485 USB converter (as shown in attachment) with following BMS softwares in window10.

Ok, after a little (or long) research I found out that your BMS seems to be a rebranded Tian Power BMS that seems to use the same RS485 protocol as the EG4 LiFePower battery packs. What I've found so far is a crude implementation and some reverse engineered documentation on the protocol. I did find a EG4 LiFePower RS485 protocol which some comments believe it to be buggy but that would be a starting point. There is also a user @TianPower here on Github who might help if you give him the serial number of your BMS and send you the RS485 communication specification.
