Using BMV-712 with solar panels and MultiPlus

Hello everyone!


I am using BMV-712, MultiPlus 12-1600-70 and MPPT SolarSmart 100-50.

I have two 255AH batteries in parallel (AGM LifeLine).

+B1 from shunt is connected to the positive pole of one of my batteries.


I kept everything as default, I just changed the capacity to 510AH.

Also, I have synced the SOC to 100%. But it shows the SOC 99.9 when the voltage dropped to 13.1, and 99.7 when the voltage dropped to 12.85.

Based on the instruction for using solar panels with BMV, I put charged voltage on 14.2V, below the absorption voltage which is 14.4V. I still have the same problem.

I kept everything as default,

Charged detection time 3 min

Charge Efficiency Factor 95%

Tail Current: 4%

Puekert: 1.25


Why the soc is not match with the voltage? 99.7 when the voltage is 12.85.

I would appreciate if you could give me some advice on it.


Thanks in advance,

Milad

So what is the issue?

SOC is not based on voltage, but on current going out or into the battery.
