Turning DVCC on turns MPPT load off

Why does my MPPT 100/20 shut the load off when I enable DVCC? Cant get it back on, unless turn dvcc feature off. Tried with ”always on”, and the batterylife management options. Load controll stays off no matter what, untill i turn dvcc off.

Venus gx with release candidate FW, MPPT 100/20 with most recent FW and BVM712 with most recent fw.

Problem started when i upgraded most recent fw to bmv, it gave low battery alarm and when i tried to reset that alarm from several places, it didnt let mppt load control to go back on.

Hi Timo,

Thanks for the report; its something we’re looking into. Probably related to venus os v2.40 betas.

I moved your question to the modifications space; thats where I prefer to discuss results of beta testing.

Best, Matthijs

I had an issue with the MPPT when I had DVCC AND VE.Smart network enabled. I was told to turn off the VE.Smart Network in order for DVCC to work correctly. I think with the new firmware on the MPPT is when this started happening as I had this enabled before.
