DVCC charge priority Orion XS vs MPPT

Q&A and troubleshooting

I have an Orion XS 1400 and a pair of SmartSolar 100/50 chargers in my RV, charging a bank of SOK 24v batteries with CAN communication. DVCC is configured to control everything.

According to 11.4.1 on 11. DVCC - Distributed Voltage and Current Control solar should be prioritized first, but as soon as my Orion starts putting out current the MPPTs drop to 0.

Have you activated the limit charge feature though?
Excerpt from your link..

Limit charge current is a user-configurable maximum charge current setting. It works across the whole system, whereby Solar is prioritised first, then the Orion XS DC-DC battery charger and then the inverter/charger.

Limit charge current is enabled.
