I will give an example of how I connected Lifepo4 batteries to the EPS30-4815AF power supply (it contains two 15A power modules).
For example, the first battery was US2000C Pylontech 50Ah 48V.
First of all, you need to look at the maximum permissible battery charging voltage, for example, for US2000C it is 53.5V, and the EPS30-4815AF power supply by default supplies equalizing 56.5V (function for lead-acid batteries), and floating 53.5V. The US2000C has 15 3.2V cells instead of 16, so you have to be careful that the power supply doesn’t supply more voltage than it can handle.
The floating voltage in EPS30-4815AF cannot be disabled, or rather, it can be disabled until the power supply is rebooted or until it is reconnected to the OLT, since when connected, the charging mode will return to automatic.
Also, in order for the charging voltage to change after executing the commands, it is necessary to disconnect the communication cable so that the OLT loses connection with the EMU (EMU state: failed), then connect it, without this the voltage will not change, you can only change the charging mode:
display emu
display emu 3
...
EMU state : normal
...
interface emu 3
display power run info
display power system parameter
power charge mode floating
power charge mode automatic
Example of voltage change for equalization and float charging for Lifepo4 battery US2000C Pylontech (the values I specified):
power charge voltage equalizing-voltage 53.1
power charge voltage floating-voltage 53.0
Example of indicating the charging current (60 * 0.25 = 15A):
power battery parameter 1 0.25 60 60
I would like to note that when turned on, the EPS30-4815AF can deliver a 30A surge of current to the battery, and after a few seconds it levels out to the set value, so in the EPS30-4815AF, I had to replace the battery fuse with a 25A one, the factory one was 20A.

Load off voltage – load shutdown, the power supply remains on, Battery-lack-voltage-off voltage – battery shutdown and power supply shutdown, this voltage must be higher than the voltage at which the BMS is turned off, otherwise, for example, in order to start charging the battery later, you will have to press the OFF / ON switch on it, it itself may not start. Unfortunately, on different Huawei OLTs, you can specify a value no higher than 44.9V (checked on MA5683T and MA5800) or 44V (checked on MA5608T). Moreover, the power supply turns off with a delay of several minutes, during this time the battery voltage will drop even lower. I also tested the 4830 power supply from another manufacturer, there you can specify a higher voltage at which the power supply is turned off and there is a web interface for remote configuration, but there are some nuances and bugs. Also on test is Huawei ETP4860-B1A2-30A (smu11b) with one R4830G 30A power module, you can install a second backup and have 60A.

For example, the floating voltage can be specified as 3.45V per cell, and the boost is no more than 3.6V, it depends on the cells and you need to make sure that the power supply correctly sees the battery capacity, so that at 100% charge it uses only floating charging. There was a case when the power supply saw that the battery was charged by 30%, but in fact 100% and floating charging in this case will never turn on.
It is better to leave the BMS parameters at factory defaults. User and password for the application below version Pylontech Batteryview V3.7 – Administrator/pylontech for Batteryview V3.8 and newer – Pylon2019001!
It is necessary to monitor the battery charging voltage and charging current values via SNMP, OID can be found in my article:
SNMP MIB/OID for Huawei ETP4830
I also ordered and connected Tewaycell 51.2V 50A batteries (Gotion 52ah cells), which had the following parameters:
Maximum charging upper limit voltage 58.4V
Floating voltage: 56.8V
Discharge lower limit voltage 43.2V
Continuous maximum charging and discharging current 50A
However, the characteristics may contain possible parameters of cells, and the BMS settings are completely different. For example, in the same battery 57.75 OV (Over voltage) was set, and for the cell 3.8 OV and when the equalizing-voltage 57 was indicated on the power supply, and this voltage is usually +0.2V, then there was a case with a 100% charged battery when it increased more than 57.75 and the battery turned off, so I indicated equalizing-voltage 56 (56/16 = 3.5V per cell). You can view alarm logs on the BMS by connecting via the RS232 or RS485 port.
I specified the parameters:
power battery parameter 0.25 60 1 60
power charge voltage floating-voltage 55.2
