Multiplus 24 5000 not charging at full output is Ripple the Cause

I have a New Victron Multiplus 24 5000 that not charging to its full output and its connected to a CCGX and DMC as well


I have upgraded to the latest firmware 465 on the multiplus

the CCGX is on 2.33 fw

Battery bank Lithium Lipo4


I have logged on to the multiplus with ve config and changed the Max charge rate to 120 amps


The charger is in Bulk mode and the max amps I can see is 60 amps at 27 volts when absorption is set at 28.4 I have tried a lower float voltage as well

I have tried it with UPS on and off

and with Weak AC on and off


A 9Kw Generator is being used for Mains Power connected to AC1 In

The only issue I can see is that the Ripple is a 0.6v

THE QUESTION is will this level of ripple cause the charge output to reduce by 50%,

What is the ambient temperature where the equipment is located? Do you have any Assistants installed that might be controlling the charger? Such as ESS with Maximum Charge Power enabled?
