Hi Victron hive. Why do I get two different values for generator kWh in system overview and consumption on the VRM?, and if the AC input & output are not used, why are they shown? TIA :)

Hi Victron hive. Why do I get two different values for generator kWh in system overview and consumption on the VRM?, and if the AC input & output are not used, why are they shown? TIA :)
Consumption tab shows energy used direct to loads
The system overview shows the total drawn from the generator, so includes battery charging and loads.
Thanks Alexandra, so in system Overview the Generator figure = Consumption + From Battery from the Consumption view? if so why do the values not equal the same?
Do you know why the AC in & out are shown in Overview when they are not needed?
Hi @Stad,
Some time in the very near future a new generator menu item will be launched in VRM and should answer your question.
Hi @Stad,
This improvement has now been implemented;
This is awesome! I've been waiting for this feature to come up! Got some grid connected sites that have batteries that charge from the grid for Peak Shaving which I also see now in ESS. No more NodeRed!
