"charger enabled" setting on MPPT Smart Solar

Hello everyone,

I would like to know a bit more technically about the setting "charger enabled" accessible via the Victron connect app for the Smart Solar MPPTs.

The documentation says it can be toggled off only during maintenance. Why the documentation says that ? Is that means it musn't be toggled off for a long period and just for a short period of maintenance ? An hour ? A day ? A week ?

What's that setting technically do in the controller and what are the limitations for using it ?

Thank you in advance if you can help me understanding this.

Hi Fabien, You can ignore that remark and disable it as long as you want.

Hi Mvader, thank you for your answer but do you know what is going on technically in the controller when this setting is toggled off ?

Does it act like an open breaker between the controller an the solar pannels ? In this case is it better to toggle it off or on at night or in weak brightness than with full sunshine ?
