No critical loads on CCGX

On my CCGX I can't see "critical loads"..

A ET340 is installed directly after grid. The ET340 is configured as "Netzzaehler" and activated in ESS. I don't know what's going wrong. Can you help me?

Hi @MaHa

You have to select 'AC output in use' for to get the 'critical loads' in view, or in German:

Wechserichter AC-Ausgang in Betrieb


see 4.3.3:

Hi

To use need to turn on, go the ESS settings tab and change to grid meter on the CCGX or Raspi

to activate the critical loads box,. Depending on what version of software you are running.

As you have a choice of External meter or Inverter charger, As per Screen Shots, before and after.

Thank you for your information but I use the last offical release (V2.53) of CCGX and there is no possibility to change "Grid metering". I will try a "release candidate" version...

The result see below :-(


I suppose this is where the mistake lies:

But I don't know what to do...:-(

@MaHa Similar error here. Maybe an avenue to explore? How long has the system operated and do you know if anything changed before this happened?

I think the error occurred after I connected and configured the Fronius. But I don't really know... Surely I know that "critical loads" were previously displayed on the CCGX.
