What batteries do you have exactly?
Maybe you also have to install a BMS assistant.

@DFraizer

With so many battery types out there Victron can't cover them all.

Usually just set the voltages to suit the batteries you have. So look up the spec for you batteries and use the values they recommend. unless you have a compatible battery then all the instructions are available on the site.

Check the lithium batteries box.

Set your float and absorption and charge current.

And absorption time and interval.

Thanks for the info. These are Victron lithium smart batteries 200 amp 12.8v with a BMS. The documentation I was reading did not give lithium as a choice in the multiplus setup. Maybe it was old documentation.
