Green LED (Inverter ON) to Orange LED (Charger Float)

I have a “Blue Power MultiPlus 48/5000/70 - Blue Solar Charge Controller – MPPT 150/35 - BMV 700 Battery Monitor.

My system worked without ANY problems from, 24 Nov’18, until, 5 Apr’19 (131 days), throughout one of the worst winters in Crete, Greece. Since the arrival of beautiful sunny weather, a problem started.

Green LED (Inverter ON) to Orange LED (Charger Float), since 5 Apr’19 until now 16 May’19 it has happened 8 times. Sometimes if I switch the Inverter OFF-ON it comes back on. Sometimes this solution takes Hours/Days.

P.S. I have NEVER connected my generator

Lowest Voltage = Zero, Highest Voltage = 58.2V

I have 4 x 200Ah batteries

Hi @David Ohara
I'd contact your installer to check things out and if the unit is defective repair it.

Same issue.

Victron toolkit doesn't show an error when only float led is lit
