producing no solar question

I have set the Minimum SoC to 90%


But now when my battery is at 90% then my MPPT is producing no Solar


If now reduce my Minimum Soc to 80% then the battery will start discharging and also i am producing Solar


My question is why was i not producing any Solar when minimum SoC was at 90%, surely it should have produced solar to


-increase battery to 100%

-produce for my current AC loads

-produce to export to the grid?

Not a lot to go on.

How new is the environment. Is it off-grid?

It is pretty normal for pylons, especially when new, not to get to full charge due to balancing.

If your system is setup correctly, the battery will tell the chargers what to do. If mppt's shut off it is most likely because the BMS has lowered it's limits.

Run through this doc to make sure you are configured correctly:

Yeh it is a new system


I could see the point of hutting the mppt off if it was excluivly being sent to the battery but dont see the logic if that power could be exported or used for ac loads.


I am now thinking tho, does the mppt send the power to batteries before it goes for ac loads or export?
