SmartShunt: Time-to-go averaging for camper van (RV): one day = 1200 minutes possible?

Hi to this great Community!

SmartShunt

setting: 'Time-to-Go averaging' more than 12 minutes ?


Reason:

Our camper's energy use jumps (0-20A).

A 20-hour (1200 minute) window would improve daily consumption forecasting a lot.


How can I set 1200 minutes? Is there a hidden setting?

Or can I get a software update for testing, please?


Greetings, from Bernd, Sandra and Rona

This might create more problems than it solves, although an increase of the 12 minute limit might be good. Perhaps @Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager) can help.

Hi @BerndCamper,

I'll ask if it can be increased, but I presume there is a technical reason for that limit (bit length constraint or some such), so I don't expect it will be straight forward to change.
