Multiplus-II GX not displaying SOC

Hi,

My Multiplus-II GX isn't displaying SOC, it never has since I installed it.

It displays "--" or says 0%

I've confirmed settings in Settings → System settings → Battery monitor
I've also tried changing it from "automatic", "MultiPlus-II 48/3000/35-32 on VE.Bus" and "No battery monitor" but it doesn't get it working.

When I select "no battery monitor" the "0W" reading disappears "(the bank currently has no load).

I've Googled around and searched the forum. Thanks for any help.

Hi @lukescarr

If you only have the Multi available to provide SOC, you'll need to enable it in the Multi. It looks like this in VEConfigure..

Better to grab a BMV or Smartshunt if you want a serious SOC.

Thanks John, that's sorted it.

I didn't see anything about having to nn specifically enable it via VEConfigure, I had assumed it was enabled by default and that by seeing battery monitor options in the remote console it was available be used.

Thanks again.
