They refuse to operate with sync'd output if the firmware is mismatched. When I had the two setup with my test setup this happened and I had to update the one. I received the 8 in 4 different purchases, so, they could be on different versions.

So.... snags.
First, my 48V power supply is dead... so, can't use it for testing.
Second, I started working on the DC side copper bus bars so I could wire up the inverters. I rolled the roll of 4/0 cable I purchased ~month ago into my work area and removed the shrink wrap to find that it was not the flexible cable I had wanted... and it'll take a week or so to get the right cable. This will likely overlap with some travel plans, which means I'll have to wait until I get back to really continue. The wire I have is completely unmanageable with the turns in my conduit setup, plus is not really good for the connections since the wire will put torque on everything since it is so inflexible.
Probably all together looking at a 2-3 week delay on the project.
