What it means

ReservedReserved code; in practice it is raised when a grid phase is lost or the AC voltage detection/relays do not close.

Cause: Loss of one grid phase, a failure in the AC voltage detection part, or relays that did not close.

How to fix it

Restart the inverter; if the error still exists, contact your installer or Deye service.

What it means

Working mode changed/Grid mode changedThe working mode or grid mode of the inverter changed. The manual notes this code has hardly ever appeared in the field.

Cause: The inverter's working mode or grid mode setting was changed while it was operating.

How to fix it

Restart the inverter; if the code persists after the restart, contact your installer or Deye service and provide the inverter serial number, the installation date and the displayed error code.

What it means

Working mode changeThe inverter's working mode has changed; this fault normally clears automatically.

Cause: Reported when the grid type and frequency are changed, when the battery mode is changed to 'No battery' mode, or, on some old firmware versions, when the system work mode is changed.

How to fix it

  1. Generally it disappears automatically.
  2. If it stays, turn off the DC switch and AC switch, wait one minute, then turn the DC/AC switches back on.
  3. Seek help from Deye if the inverter cannot go back to the normal state.

What it means

Mos over temperatureThe BMS power MOSFETs exceeded their temperature limit.

Cause: High continuous current combined with high ambient temperature or blocked ventilation overheated the BMS switching MOSFETs.

How to fix it

  1. Reduce the charge/discharge current, let the battery cool, and improve ventilation.
  2. If it recurs at moderate current, contact Deye support.

What it means

ALARM_ID_SOUTH_CONNECTOR_OVER_TEMP_LEV_2The temperature of the BMU connector is too high.

Cause: A loose or high-resistance connection at the BMU power connector heated up under current.

How to fix it

  1. Switch off, let it cool, and check/re-seat and torque the BMU connector and cabling.
