MultiPlus II Setup with PV -> Critical Loads

My Setup is as follows with 3 Multiplus II - 8000 for 400v 3Phase:

The PV Inverter is on the Net side then the Cable goes into the 3 Multiplus Input and then Output 2 goes into the house.

Now my question: In the VRM Portal it looks like this:

if i enable the switch AC-Output in ESS it looks like this:

vrm2.png


Why is critical loads in plus and so high when the Grid is negative? Why is load at 0? Is it because of the used Meter ET340? I read something about it giving wrong data in a single phase system?


Thanks!

Cheers

C.

All checked. L1, L2 and L3 are on the Correct Multiplus, COMs are also correct. Its strange. What i will now try. I will use the Output 1, which is the one which is supplied even when net has gone down.

It seems the PV in the VRM Portal is just added to the crit loads instead substracted.

Thanks. Could be. It says in that Menu: AC OUTPUT.

But if i enter the Menu, it says:

AC Input 1
AC Input 2
AC Output

But my Multiplus has:

Output 1
Output 2
Input 1

So, as shown in the picture im in the Input. So what could be the correct setting?

- Update

i just switched to Input 1 and now everything looks correct in VRM Portal. Wonder what happens if i switch to input 2 which is non existent on the multi.

That was it! Putting it to Input 2 (which i dont have in the Multi II) doesnt work. Input 1 works perfectly. Now all values are correct in VRM !! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!!!

The MultiPlus-II will use data from the external AC current sensor (must be ordered separately) or power meter to optimise selfconsumption and, if required, to prevent grid feed. In case of a power outage, the MultiPlus-II will continue to supply the critical loads. Monkey
