ESS settings issue on Quatro 10KVA

I am using Quatro 48V-10kVA inverter with 3 victron MPPT 250-100 charge controllers , Axitec lithium batteries , no grid meter along with Grid to work as backup only. I followed steps to setup ESS for this system but the issue is that whenever I turn on grid along with charge controllers inorder to charge my batteries faster , the inverter shows to be in Passthru mode and solar charge controllers go to 0W (basically they disconect).

When I turn off the grid mcb, the charge controllers come back on and start charging batteries again .. Can anyone guide me on whats set incorrect here that is causing this issue? I will share screen shots of my current ESS settings.

I saw the set up instructions for the battery and system, have you dont a check through them, maybe you missed something?

It will be either grid meter, batteries, or grid code lom related.

You have grid meter enabled there, but you dont have one?

The GX is not receiving information from can managed batteries, see FAQ 4 for other ideas.

If you have set up your charge voltages in the multi there is no need to set them in the ess menu there.
