looking at the display this morning the Easy Solar was showing batteries at 46.5% -connecting a Generator indicated only 50W of charge load. connecting to the Solar Charger via blue tooth shows the batteries at 78%.
which is correct ? how do I get display to show correct level ?
Note - this is a new install so its likely a setting but which ?

So to add a little more info as requested by kevgermany
Yes it has built in GX Firmware V3.01, Battery config is 180Ah 48V AGM.
After a system restart battery level is now 100%- This I can understand as it does not know now the exact battery state anymore. How do I get a correct result of battery level easily ? there are no other DC loads connected to battery bank.
If there is no shunt you cant trust either.
Not sure what you connected to but a solar charger does not give SOC?
How is the system programmed? Was any of the firmware updated?
100% after restart sounds very much like a BMV or smart shunt.
I had a similar issue lately with my EasySolar 2 and a self built Battery storage.
After a few months the BMS said that the SOC is 46,2% while simultaneously running into undervoltage protection. I had changed the "charging strategy" to 15%-50% (start using the battery again when 50% is reached) and it seemed that the BMS lost track of the correct SOC. I had to fully charge the battery to 100% and now it's working again (and i hope with more or less correct SOC)
