This is a confusing view. One could think I consume 18kW. Either connect the EVCS to the AC loads as it looks like on the new EVCS FW or (what I would prefer) do the correct calculation and substract the EVCS wattage from AC loads.
Hello @luphi
If you mean with 2kW under AC Loads I share your point of view but then in my opinion the link to ECVS should start from AC Loads
Good catch. The problem was similar in the VRM view some monthes ago, and as been corrected by linking the EVCS under the AC loads.
I would have prefered if it was kept linked to ACout and the substraction done.
yes indeed you are right it is better and more logical, I must have been a little tired when I suggested linking directly to AC-Out
Hi all,
Philipp from the Victron team here.
Thanks for reporting, you are indeed right, it’s confusing. Actually, the “wire” to the EVCS tile should originate on AC Loads to make clear, that the EVCS is part of the total AC loads. That’s how it is already done for systems with a grid meter (see screenshot attached). The case without a grid meter seems to have slipped through.
I have passed the issue on to the development team, so that it should be fixed in the near future.

Thanks @ptrenz for this support, it’s always nice to be able to exchange like this.
However, how will the display be when there is a PV on Output and the DC System which for the moment are all on the right too?
@maa PV on output is now summed directly in only one PV block. No more distinction between PV sources until you click on it, then it opens a list with all pv chargers and inverters.
I feel it’s a regression, but it’s only my view. I love to see if everything is working right in the first glance. Now I need to read the PV production watts, and if I feel it’s too low, need to click on it to see detailled view. 
Ah yes indeed I share @yann 's point of view it is much less meaningful especially when we also have Guimods as an overlay
Too bad
Hello, i have the same situation, on evcs screen it shows same as already reported and on cerbo it shows it correct at the grid side.
And i have one more problem, evcs shows overload, even if it is connected directly to grid and not to ACout, this is a very uncomfortable situation as i was expectingto have a charged car available.
Hi Thomas, as the GX devices and EVCS are two different products and this thread is about the GX, please open a new thread for discussing your EVCS related issues. That makes it easier, thanks!
I agree, getting more details on AC and DC production in the overview would be nice. I will pass this request on to the team.

Hey @luphi and others, this (evcs connection point) is fixed per v3.51~2 beta.
Available to install and test now.
Does this fix it for you?
Thanks for the help all in making a better product!
Full v3.51~2 details: Venus OS beta series announcement and changelog - v3.51~2 - #2
Ps. Lets stay on topic, and keep this thread on the connection point of the EVCS.
PV numbers are also covered in other topics 
Partially fixed. The evcs is now bound to ac loads, but no ants walking the line anymore
Thank you, noted
I don’t quite understand your “Everything is fine”, so maybe for EVCS but do you know why you have a message from BatteryLife #1 with a 42% SOC.
Where is the trick?
yes, I know, and it’s on purpose. I have ESS configured for “optimized without battery life” and minimum SOC is set to 40%
understood
