Settings for 100/50MPPT
I have a MPPT 100/50 connected to one Renogy 200ah Deep cycle Pure Gel Battery. I need the correct settings for the rotary switch. The controller is connected to 4X100W solar cells which are connected in parallel. Would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance
If you consult the manual for the 100/50 it will tell you on page 7 what the charge Voltages are for each of the rotary switch positions.
Here is a link to the MPPT 100/50 manual:

Then you need to consult the datasheet for your battery and cross reference their suggested charge parameters with those for the 100/50.

Great, thanks. My specs says 14.2 max charge rate and a 13.5v Float. Looking at the chart it is matched up to #7 position. It does say suggested battery type is Lithium iron phosphate for #7. Does it make a difference that mine is a Gel battery?
Those match, but the Lithium profile does not have temperature compensation or Equalization. Position 0 would get you closer to where you want to be.
If you really want the exact parameters then those can be configured using the Victronconnect App / software.
