Large battery, no PV, auto mode: Victron EVCS NS is 'waiting for sun' forever

Hi everybody,

I have a setup with 3-phase Multiplus II devices, a large battery, an Ekrano GX and two EV chargers (no screen-version). I do not have any PV yet and want to use this setup for peak shaving and control when I charge two cars simultaneously. Manual charging is working just fine, but there is no load balancing, leading to potential overload and tripping of my fuse. I would like to be able to plug in the cars and the charging to start from my batteries and the GX to perform load balancing. This is why I would like to use auto mode. I have made the following configuration on the two EVCS’s:

In the ESS settings on the GX I have enabled Peak Shaving and even turned off BatteryLife. Still, I can’t get the cars to start charging. The message is always ‘waiting for sun’. Anyone got any ideas that could help me?

The auto mode is designed to work in combination with PV.
