Has there been any movement on this? I am going to be using a Schneider XW Mppt 80A 600v Charge Control RNW8651032 with a WatchMon4.
Each device on the Schneider modbus network has to be individually spoken tovia the CommBoxtorevise their specifictarget charge/discharge limits and switch operating modes.
Hence every configuration scenario is different, for example the scenarios we have had requests:
- XW inverter plusConext RL 5kw Single Phase Gridfeed
- XW inverter plus 1 x MPPT60-150
- XW inverter plus 2 x MPPT60-150
- XW inverter plus 1 x MPPT80-600
Hence a 1 solution to fit all scenarios is not possible. This issue to use Schneider products with Lithium Ion batteries is something they cleared wanted to address as they now have released a module to do that job.

TheCONEXT BRIDGEallows the equivalent of a LG RESU battery to advise its operating state and then that bridgewill reconfigure theequipment. We have a emulator to send equivalent BMS messages. Hence for you scenario I would suggest that you consider this option.
Unfortunately we don't have access to a Schneider XW 80A 600VDC MPPT Charge Controller for our testbench.
