If you google “victron modbus register” you will get a link to the doc.

This is also easily done via node red.

Same problem here. I did not find the setting in node red either.

I think it is a combination of:
- register 2902 (/Settings/Cgwacs/Hub4Mode)
- register 2900 (/Settings/CGwacs/BatteryLife/State)

Try chaging the parameters in the VRM-portal and you should see the values in 2900 and 2902 changing.
