hi the system is charging bateries during night, so i tried to disable ESS activating External mode, and restarting system, and enable ESS with optimiced batteries again, but is fixed in external control and cannont disable it, i have reinstalled all, but is still not working in ESS Mode.
ESS what type of batteres are you using? if Lithium use with out optimised setting under ESS.
2x Pylontech lithium, with this config:
if i change parameters in ESS, it doesn't make effect, is still in External control.
I am seeing a similar problem on my ESS - only in the last few days started going into "External Control" despite setting to Optimized without Battery Life (ReVoV Battery BMS recommendation). This started after recent update of firmware to V2.90 on 12 Sep 2022. Must be a bug. Can an expert please advise what to do?
Hi,
I also realized today, that "ext. control" is mentioned.
After reading many posts in this forum, I think I found the answer:
ESS - Multiplus status - VenusOS 2.92
"The status of a multi in an ESS has been external control for quite some time. It is the correct status as it is being controlled externally c/o DVCC."
