What is the proper Multiplus-ii 24/3000/70 configuration with Victron 24v Lithium batteries?

When I got into VE Configure and set my batteries to Lithium, I get a low battery warning (solid RED) on my Multiplus-ii. When I set it back to "defaults" it goes away.

This feels like an FAQ, but I can't find the answer, what have I missed?

My system:

  • Multiplus-ii 24/3000/70, Firmware 506
  • Lynx Smart BMS, Firmware 1.06
  • Cerbo GX, Firmware 3.01
  • MK3-USB-C

My config export is attached.

Thanks so much!

Don't use the preset "with VE.Bus BMS" because you don't have a VE.Bus BMS.

That did it, thanks @Matthias Lange - DE.

Very odd that I have to pick the option which doesn't say "Victron Battery". Maybe a new entry with Victron Battery, Lynx Smart BMS would be helpful.

You do not say what type of battery/batteries you have

If 3.2v cells then 28.40V is a little high and of no real benefit

This is "with Victron 24v Lithium batteries", Lithium Battery Smart 25.6V 200Ah.
