Battery terminal voltage reading high

screenshot-20240319-174530.jpgI have a victron 75/15, a 12 volt, 100 amp hour lithium iron phosphate battery and a 200 watt panel. Today I noticed that the charge controller app was showing panels were generating 44 volts. App also showed the battery with that 44 volts ( When I measure the battery with a multimeter, it read at 12.9 volts just like I should).


I used the multimeter to check the terminals of the solar charge controller to see if it was just a faulty reading with the app. But the multimeter also confirmed that the output to the battery of 44 volts. Is normal ? I assumed that the charge controller would be outputting 14.4 V, which is what I have it set at in the app, not 44. See screenshot, 2nd column from left.

Have you connected the battery and solar panel to the mppt the wrong way around? There's no yield or power showing the solar generated anything.
