I am seeing some out dated data that needs a refresh to properly update.
The view you have is the same view I had when I had no assistants running in the VE Configure 3 tool, and I was running with AC in disconnected and inverter only with no charger. My suggestion is to open your Remote VEConfigure files and check everything is correct inc all the assistants needed for your install. Im sure inverting is when you are running a off-grid install which is what you appear to have. Float and bulk are when you are charging from AC and the screen shots appear to show your AC is disconnected so therefore I would not expect to see 'bulk' or absorption or float as you are not charging from the AC side but you are charging from the PV on the DC side, whilst generating AC from the inverter. In short, everything appear to be correct for a off-grid install with your install generating AC through the inverter.
Thanks, @Justin Tierney I have had absorb, bulk and float showing until recently. I was advised by my installer to not use any assistants. I am off grid, there is no ESS, so I don't think that any assistants apply to my installation?
The Victron system has been installed since August last year. And until I can log in via my browser again, I am not in a good position to use VE configure unless I can download the file to my Mac using Parallels on Mac.
I also do not have lithium batteries, mine are lead acid. I'll look into "stop after excessive bulk".
But I cannot login to the VRM in my browser at the moment.
It was removed because it was causing confusion when multiple MPPTs exist - see this thread for the discussion/decision
@Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager) , thank you for this, sorry to take up your time. I don't read this forum every day.
Is there any way for me to keep in touch with changes like this, so I don't unnecessarily take up bandwidth in future?
And any thoughts on why I can't log back into the VRM in my browser? I left it overnight, but still says this:
Thank you.
Hi @VWard,
If I am understanding you correctly, you are referring to this box underneath the 'inverter'?
This box shows the charging state of the MultiPlus, not the MPPT charge controllers - so if the Multi is only inverting, and not charging (from an AC supply), then it will not show those charge states.
Even though the MPPTs are charging their charge state is not shown on the VRM dashboard. The MPPT charge state is available in the Advanced view as a widget. Either the "MPPT Summary" for the current instantaneous mode or "MPPT State" to see it graphed over time.
@Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager) , thank you for this. This is an old screen shot from the app on my iPhone. Float or absorb or bulk has always shown on the dashboard, until this week.
And I cannot login again to the VRM on my browser. It says too many connections. I don't understand why.
