2 MPPTs on Float

I have 2 PV arrays, 3240W and 2200W peak, on 2 SmartSolar MPPTs with the same charge settings. Smart networking enabled.

Notice below that during float, one MPPT does all of the floating while the other does nothing.

I assume this will not cause any issues but I would like them to still contribute power to the system proportionately. This would then allow me to measure each array's integrated output over time accurately.

Is there a way to set the system to have them float proportionately? I assume no but thought to ask here.


Thanks!

I have seen this with my 450/100 two will be idle while one provides float power.

It might be to do witch array has sun or best light but not sure.

So sorry i don't know.

Now that I have the 2 MPPTs sync'd by NOT using the bluetooth smart networking, they do seem to share the float power.
