hey what's guys back to the channel I hey what's guys back to the channel I hey what's guys back to the channel I have been using this 6000 XP over the have been using this 6000 XP over the have been using this 6000 XP over the last few months with many different last few months with many different last few months with many different kinds of batteries including these AO kinds of batteries including these AO kinds of batteries including these AO lithium batteries and these life power 4 lithium batteries and these life power 4 lithium batteries and these life power 4 batteries among several others and the batteries among several others and the batteries among several others and the way I generally have it set up is I have way I generally have it set up is I have way I generally have it set up is I have the 6000 XP communicating with battery the 6000 XP communicating with battery the 6000 XP communicating with battery Communications with the life power 4 Communications with the life power 4 Communications with the life power 4 batteries uh but in this episode I'm batteries uh but in this episode I'm batteries uh but in this episode I'm going to show you how to get the 6000 XP going to show you how to get the 6000 XP going to show you how to get the 6000 XP talking to the AOL lithium batteries talking to the AOL lithium batteries talking to the AOL lithium batteries using uh the battery Communications here using uh the battery Communications here using uh the battery Communications here so if that's what you want know and how so if that's what you want know and how so if that's what you want know and how to do it including other batteries in to do it including other batteries in to do it including other batteries in the set to get them all talking to the the set to get them all talking to the the set to get them all talking to the 6000 XP stick with 6000 XP stick with 6000 XP stick with us all right you guys so this right here us all right you guys so this right here us all right you guys so this right here is eg4 6000 XP you just saw in the shot is eg4 6000 XP you just saw in the shot is eg4 6000 XP you just saw in the shot behind me and uh for the purpose of this behind me and uh for the purpose of this behind me and uh for the purpose of this video I'm going to assume you have video I'm going to assume you have video I'm going to assume you have everything else set up and we're going everything else set up and we're going everything else set up and we're going to be talking about just the battery to be talking about just the battery to be talking about just the battery Communications with the 6000 XP and the Communications with the 6000 XP and the Communications with the 6000 XP and the AO lithium batteries okay I I know AO lithium batteries okay I I know AO lithium batteries okay I I know there's six of them here and they're all there's six of them here and they're all there's six of them here and they're all technically electrically connected technically electrically connected technically electrically connected together it's this a huge mess right together it's this a huge mess right together it's this a huge mess right here right with the life power 4S this here right with the life power 4S this here right with the life power 4S this and other batteries all connected and other batteries all connected and other batteries all connected everywhere but for the purpose of this everywhere but for the purpose of this everywhere but for the purpose of this video we're only going to be talking video we're only going to be talking video we're only going to be talking about one two three these three about one two three these three about one two three these three batteries here as we have the batteries here as we have the batteries here as we have the communications set up here okay so uh communications set up here okay so uh communications set up here okay so uh let's go ahead and talk about this so let's go ahead and talk about this so let's go ahead and talk about this so take the orange ethernet cable that take the orange ethernet cable that take the orange ethernet cable that comes with the 6000 XP take the batom comes with the 6000 XP take the batom comes with the 6000 XP take the batom 568 BS side and plug it into the 568 BS side and plug it into the 568 BS side and plug it into the ethernet port that's inside of here ethernet port that's inside of here ethernet port that's inside of here right come out of there then take this right come out of there then take this right come out of there then take this this uh 568b or I'm not even sure if this uh 568b or I'm not even sure if this uh 568b or I'm not even sure if this side even matters but take this this side even matters but take this this side even matters but take this side and then take plug it into your can side and then take plug it into your can side and then take plug it into your can 485a port on your master battery pack 485a port on your master battery pack 485a port on your master battery pack and according to the manual on your and according to the manual on your and according to the manual on your master battery pack you need to set all master battery pack you need to set all master battery pack you need to set all the dip switches down except for number the dip switches down except for number the dip switches down except for number six put number six up okay and then on six put number six up okay and then on six put number six up okay and then on your slave on your first slave pack here your slave on your first slave pack here your slave on your first slave pack here uh come out of the Master battery using uh come out of the Master battery using uh come out of the Master battery using 485b connect with the standard pinout 485b connect with the standard pinout 485b connect with the standard pinout ethernet cable and connect to this RS ethernet cable and connect to this RS ethernet cable and connect to this RS 485b Port here and then set your first 485b Port here and then set your first 485b Port here and then set your first slave pack address to one to be up and slave pack address to one to be up and slave pack address to one to be up and then all of them to be down okay so this then all of them to be down okay so this then all of them to be down okay so this is your first slave pack and then take is your first slave pack and then take is your first slave pack and then take the another ethernet cable come out of the another ethernet cable come out of the another ethernet cable come out of this this this 485b port and then connect to your 485b port and then connect to your 485b port and then connect to your second slave pack on your rs485 bport second slave pack on your rs485 bport second slave pack on your rs485 bport here and then set your second slave pack here and then set your second slave pack here and then set your second slave pack to be all down except for number two to be all down except for number two to be all down except for number two okay so just to recap three batteries okay so just to recap three batteries okay so just to recap three batteries here Master battery pack slave battery here Master battery pack slave battery here Master battery pack slave battery pack second slave battery pack Master pack second slave battery pack Master pack second slave battery pack Master battery pack connect the orange cable to battery pack connect the orange cable to battery pack connect the orange cable to can can can 485a dip switch number six up slave pack 485a dip switch number six up slave pack 485a dip switch number six up slave pack dip switch number one up and then your dip switch number one up and then your dip switch number one up and then your second slave pack dip switch number two second slave pack dip switch number two second slave pack dip switch number two up okay so that's the way that this is up okay so that's the way that this is up okay so that's the way that this is set up right now and we can go ahead and set up right now and we can go ahead and set up right now and we can go ahead and then take take a look at the app to kind then take take a look at the app to kind then take take a look at the app to kind of show you and and the programming you of show you and and the programming you of show you and and the programming you need to do on the 6000 XP but I do want need to do on the 6000 XP but I do want need to do on the 6000 XP but I do want to iterate on this okay so one thing you to iterate on this okay so one thing you to iterate on this okay so one thing you need to do when you change dip switches need to do when you change dip switches need to do when you change dip switches on any of these batteries here you need on any of these batteries here you need on any of these batteries here you need to power cycle the battery what that to power cycle the battery what that to power cycle the battery what that means is turn the power off wait I don't means is turn the power off wait I don't means is turn the power off wait I don't know just count to 10 or something and know just count to 10 or something and know just count to 10 or something and flip it back on okay that's what needs flip it back on okay that's what needs flip it back on okay that's what needs to happen in order for the dip switch to happen in order for the dip switch to happen in order for the dip switch change here to take effect okay that change here to take effect okay that change here to take effect okay that goes for all the batteries or any dip goes for all the batteries or any dip goes for all the batteries or any dip switches you change so going to uh the switches you change so going to uh the switches you change so going to uh the 6000 XP uh right now go into menu hit 6000 XP uh right now go into menu hit 6000 XP uh right now go into menu hit the enter button for about 3 seconds and the enter button for about 3 seconds and the enter button for about 3 seconds and you'll go into menu you want to go to you'll go into menu you want to go to you'll go into menu you want to go to setting number I believe it's three setting number I believe it's three setting number I believe it's three which two three oh that s too far so go which two three oh that s too far so go which two three oh that s too far so go to the setting where the battery icon to the setting where the battery icon to the setting where the battery icon keeps flashing hit enter you go in here keeps flashing hit enter you go in here keeps flashing hit enter you go in here leave it on type lithium ion which is leave it on type lithium ion which is leave it on type lithium ion which is type three type three type three and then here you get the battery brand and then here you get the battery brand and then here you get the battery brand and according to the manual zero is and according to the manual zero is and according to the manual zero is eg4 and um two I believe is pylon Tech eg4 and um two I believe is pylon Tech eg4 and um two I believe is pylon Tech so right now I've already done it to two so right now I've already done it to two so right now I've already done it to two but just in case you didn't you know you but just in case you didn't you know you but just in case you didn't you know you you would already be on zero I'm you would already be on zero I'm you would already be on zero I'm assuming just say you're on zero go up assuming just say you're on zero go up assuming just say you're on zero go up to to to two all right hit two all right hit two all right hit enter go back and it'll automatically enter go back and it'll automatically enter go back and it'll automatically save and reset okay so uh going on on save and reset okay so uh going on on save and reset okay so uh going on on the battery Communications here seeing the battery Communications here seeing the battery Communications here seeing if you can actually see the screen right if you can actually see the screen right if you can actually see the screen right now it says the battery is at now it says the battery is at now it says the battery is at 51. 7% okay everything is normal and 51. 7% okay everything is normal and 51. 7% okay everything is normal and happy all right there's a battery status happy all right there's a battery status happy all right there's a battery status gauge here it's kind of coming across gauge here it's kind of coming across gauge here it's kind of coming across weird on this camera but you can kind of weird on this camera but you can kind of weird on this camera but you can kind of see it so right now it says the battery see it so right now it says the battery see it so right now it says the battery is at 51. 7 volts go on here and we're at is at 51. 7 volts go on here and we're at is at 51.
