Hello All Hi William I just tried my Mate3S in to my FM100AFCI and it does see the FM100 and all the screen are available. Here is a screen shot from the Quick Start Guide http://www.outbackpower.com/downloads/documents/charge_controllers/flexmax_100_afci/fm100_afci_qsg.pdf There are 2 ports on the FM both will accept a cat5 comm cable use the left port.

The system has an oval Mate and it is no surprise the old Mate does not communicate with the FM100 as this was made clear from the literature. I plugged in a new Mate3S directly into the FM100 hoping to connect and see data, but alas, the display was almost entirely blank. It only showed the battery voltage which was 500 volts, which I guess is a promotion. I then tried plugging the FM100 into a Hub 10.3 and then into the Mate3S. Still no display. I’d like to field-check the FM100 with a Mate3 or 3S but don’t know how. It used to be you could plug an MX60 into a Mate and get some semblance of normality displayed. Can I swap out the old hub with a 10.3 with the inverters connected and get FM100 data? Any ideas out there? Thanks in advanced. William PS: The FM100 is charging so that is not an issue.
