Multiplus issues..

MP 12v 3000 120 I recently had it wired up.. it does seem to work and invert properly.. But can't seem to get it to use more Solar then grid power.

my system: 400Ah lithium, 2 arrays with their own controllers (870 and 1200 with 150\70's), Lynx distributor, CERBO


I have had it set to (in the advanced tab) to "prioritize using other energy sources".. but it still stays on grid power all day.. and uses very little solar. I've tried using the assistants, but they didn't seem to do anything. I must be doing something wrong.. and need HELP..

The feature to prioritize solar and wind energy only works for the battery charging and the supply of DC loads.

What you need is the function to ignore the AC IN or the ESS assistent.

What kind of system do you have?
