My DESS operating mode is currently ‘Trade mode’. I tried to change it to ‘Green mode’. After applying the update is reports the trade mode has changed but if I refresh the page of check the setting days later the operating mode has not changed and it shows ‘Trade mode’. I tried changing the operating mode via iPad app, android app and web vrm portal. All the same result…

It all depends on all the settings combined. Without that information, you’re only guessing.

This could be a bug in VRM perhaps because they are improving things in the background.

It now works. Thanks [dfaber] | Dirk-Jan Faber (Victron Energy) dfaber Victron Staff 4 October | | - | See About the DESS category - #23 by jarco . Should all be fine again.
