Mate3 shutdown the system this morning just as the panels were starting to receive some Rays .
Events menu showed AC input Voltage OK .
OpticsRE events menu showed firmware update 1.1.71 at 7.08AM
And then “not charging “ at 8.50AM which is when panels were just starting to put .5KW out as the sun came around .
This is the first system induced hiccup in almost a year since installing LifePo4 batts .
Also I’ve never had any luck with trying to install updates so an “auto” update is surprising .
Any hints as to what happened are appreciated .
Cheers

Re: Mate3 random shutdown and firmware update
All the Mate3 and FXR class firmware updates are manual, IME.
I wonder what equipment runs at that release level?OpticsRE events menu showed firmware update 1.1.71 at 7.08AM
