Low Ac out voltage on Multiplus 24/800VA, 230V

I have a 24/800VA Multiplus, output voltage was supposed to be ~230V and here below are what am seeing:
- Vout on VE_Bus monitor: 494V (Uout)

- Vout using multimeter: 113Vac


The batteries are okey with 26.6Vdc (Using Multimeter and even VE_Bus monitor.

Anybody had the same issue before? thoughts?

Do you have AES enabled in the inverter tab?

Hi @klim8skeptic,

no AES is disabled, you think it can help?

Hi @Honore

That doesn't look right indeed, I think only thing you can try is updating firmware, if that doesn't help contact your distributor for repair / warranty / etc.

I think this unit is faulty and should be sent back to the dealer from whence it came for a replacement.

My reasoning is this. I think that there is a fault with the output Voltage sensing circuit, the CPU is being led to beleive that the output Voltage is high, so it drives the output lower and lower to compensate. At 113V it can't drive the output any lower (for a 230V unit) so that is the reading you get at the output.
