Battery Percentage Not reading correctly on EasySolar GX II

Hello,
After enabling the battery monitor from the VEConfigure,
the battery showed up on my screen however, the percentage which initially at 100% is only going down despite the battery being charged at times of the day.
The battery is showing that it is charging / discharging, the battery voltage changes as well up and down. However, the percentage never goes up, it only goes down while discharging.
Any idea on how to fix that please?

You don't have a shunt, which measures actual current into and out of the battery. The Easysolar readings are based on battery voltage and are not very accurate. You should be able to check the settings of the multiplus inside the Easysolar with VE Configure. The set of settings offered on the built in screen is limited.

You may also have a mismatch between the battery settings in the MPPT solar controller and the inverter/charger.
