Hello, All. Trying again after the site ate my first try.
I've noticed a significant discrepancy between the Pmax as reported in History and that displayed in the graph in Trends. Today, for example, History reports Pmax as 95W, while the largest Solar Power value displayed in Trends is 82W. Screenshots below for reference. I'm running the latest firmware, 1.61, but this discrepancy occurred in the last version, too.
I've noticed that History does not immediately update to the highest wattage reported in Status. I've assumed this is because incoming wattage must meet some specified minimum duration to be considered significant enough to report as Pmax. The Trends graph, however, displays the fluctuations. This is the opposite of the behavior I'm reporting here. (If it were consistent, I would expect Trends to show 95W at some point for however brief a moment, while History might only report Pmax of 82W. Except that would probably be even weirder!)
Have I missed some consideration? Perhaps Victron could take a look at their reporting algorithms to ensure that they are consistent.
