BMV 700 Settings for Lifeline GPL-16T batteries

If I can get some advise that would great, we have 4 x Lifeline GPL-16T 400ah batteries in series and parallel for 12v at a total of 800ah, could somebody please look at these settings for the BMV 700 that we are running and advise if they are correct, close or anything that should be changed as I'm not sure I understand all the settings and what they do.

Have a look at the BMV Youtube tutorial.

I think the only thing that might need tweeking could be the "charged voltage", depending on what your charging source is.

Ok thankyou, we have 900w solar, Victron Multiplus 12/3000/120/50, yesterday morning we were down 104ahr with the BMV indicating battery capacity 90%, within half an hour BMV was showing 100% charged, it just seemed a bit quick to be at 100% so quickly.
