So ill start with the BMV-712 .. as soon as i connected it to my battery bank 2 100AH 12V battle born batteries in Parallel it gave me a midvoltage warning .. i couldn't find anything on the internet that applied to my specific problem
Now the charge controller.. when i look at the app it says 0watts when my battery switch is on and my battery isnt fully charged and therent isnt a sun in the sky .. is that normal ?
1. Look into the settings maybe there is something with a midpoint alarm. Maybe you can give us some screenshots.
2. What PV voltage do you have? (screenshots)
Yah im getting a midpoint alarm but these are brand new batterys i just set Up and bought at the samE time so i assumed maybe it was something wrong with my setup ?
The solar panels r brand new also as well as the charge controller
Im kind of new to all this stuff and learning as i go but it seems that on a really sunny day with 2 175Watt solar panels I should be getting more then 10watts right?
1. You have a 12v system so you don't have a midpoint to measure 2. The 2nd contact at the shunt PCB is free so the BMV can't measure anything there. Go to the settings and there should be a option to select what is connected to the 2nd input (you should select starter battery)
The MPPT is in float = battery is nearly full take a look at the settings (screenshot).
