New version of grid code standard in Austria (TOR Erzeuger V1.2)

Hello victron community!

Currently (2022-04-13) the only configuration option for Austria is "TOR-Erzeuger A V1.1:2019-12" providing configurations consistent to version 1.1 of the grid standard "TOR-Erzeuger A".

There has been an update to version 1.2 recently with effective date on April 18th 2022. The official document describing the new version can be accessed on https://www.e-control.at/documents/1785851/1811582/TOR+Erzeuger+Typ+A+V1.2.pdf

Is there a schedule for updating this grid code standard?

Cheers, Peter

Any update on this, please? It still shows "TOR-Erzeuger A V1.1:2019-12" in the settings with the latest MPII Firmware v502.

Is 505 the official release? It shows me in Victron Connect, that I have the latest version 502.

Yes, probably need to update your Victron Connect app.

505 is not part of VictronConnet right now.

It is only available at Victron Professional and VRM.
But the changelog doesn't say something about grid codes.

Didn't intend to imply it did. Just stating 502 is not the latest.

For me the latest released version is relevant, that seems to be v502.

There was a grid code update for Austria in v500. The "TOR-Erzeuger A V1.1:2019-12" string itself seems to be stored in the VEConfig.exe executable, not in the firmware file. So I hope it is just a forgotten issue in VEConfig and the firmware and the settings are TOR V1.2 compliant. I have the latest VEConfig version BTW.
@Victron, can you please confirm this?

505 IS the latest released version, it is just not implement in VC at the moment

That always takes some time but will be included in the next VC update.

Thanks for all of you for your answers!

Does that mean, that these versions (not in VC yet) are fully tested and are safe to use in the field?
Back to the original question: Is TOR V1.2 implemented in v502 and/or in v505?

Still V1.1 in version 507.

Are Victron developers watching this forum? Where can I report issues/bugs?
