Hi; has this been resolved in the mean time? If not; please list the firmware versions that you are using.
@mvader I have a similar/comparable problem with Easy-solar 48/5000/70. As my lead-acid cells are seriously getting out of sync I wanted to perform an equalizing cycle. It was refused (charger not ready). I presumed that (logically) you need full charge to do so, and I changed my settings from 70% minimum SOC to 100%, waited for 100% to display to again get the same message. Further on, although 100% charge is displayed the bulk led stays on.

Hi @josmeijer, did you try setting the ESS mode to 'keep batteries charged' first?
Nee, en dat was 't dus.....
@josmeijer,
Perfect, thanks for the feed-back
Fijne jaarwisseling!
I have the same problem @Potgieter. Hangs on "starting" when I try to run equalisation from the CGX. I've also tried using the switch sequence on the front panel buttons. Charger was in Float mode, firmware up to date. Has anyone found a solution?
Easysolar 48/5000/70-100, CGX, BMV, lead acid batteries, off grid with solar input only.
If you don't have AC input, you have to equalize with the MPPT, not with the inverter (Multi)
See manual of MPPT for how to do this.
Good morning Daniel,
thank you for this information. but how we can Eqlz via MPPT when this is in ESS mode and controled via Multi+CCGX
before ESS we have the possibility to config the MPPT with the App every 15 or 30 days Eqlz automaticaly but now we do not have this funktion yet.
If we can add this time setting to the CCGX and make sure the manuely Eqlz, it will be a very good tool as like the MPPT
many thanks and BR

Hi HuHu,
An off-grid system = not an ESS system, in an ESS system your Multi / Quattro does the equalizing, in an off-grid system the MPPT's (or when you have a generator, you can use the Multi)
Thanks for your discussions, which explain why my equalisation is not working (offgrid). Please can you show me where I can run the equalisation from the MPPT menu?
Hi Gavin, is this not in the manual?
