VenusOS v3.50 / GUI v2 issues/suggestions

Battery percentage never reaches 100%

Hi @juggernaut_jeff , best would be to post a question about that in the general Q&A category. And make sure to give more information: type of battery monitor or BMS used for example.

It is not related to anything mentioned in this thread,

Hope you get it solved quickly, Matthijs

i concluded too quickly on the disconnected grid.
Still have the issue in fact


Yes @kds , nice find: that solar box is also supposed to show the total in Watts in case of a three phase system. Will be fixed, and thank you for confirming the other fix

Ok wrt issue on grid can you post a screenshot?

solar box is ok. indeed was probably because of the reboot situation and no power yet. All good on this one, thanks :slight_smile:

see disconnected grid screen print fyi

When there’s not enough space, some tiles do not show the total wattage but the three phases. Could there be a switch to toggle between displaying the phases and the total wattage in case of not enough space for both?

Hi @m_ach you can set it to watts only, had you seen that option already?

  • in case of external control of the inverter/charger, it is really nice to see the « external control » label, thanks
  • but would be instrumental to see if it is charging or inverting, especially for more complex installation than mine. I know one can just look to battery status but


:+1:.

reducing the use of that external control state is nearly at the top of the priority list.

I understand.
In case you find time later on:

You mean this toggle? There I already chose „Watt“.

I see it now, thanks, hadn’t read your first post carefully enough @m_ach .

Noted, we’ll look into that

Many thanks, @mpvader. Alternatively you could shrink the EVCS tile a little bit. Especially when not charging. :wink:

Can we please have the option to display both, as per my picture above :pray:

I am having a feature request reguarding the display for marine and RV. Now we are able to let display the Ampere instead of Watts. Really great. But I realized that this means that the inverter is displaying the AC Ampere. As a RV guy I am always calculating in the battery system Ampere. So I would like to see the inverter showing me the DC Ampere instead of the AC Ampere. For example like on the solar section. This is also not showing the PV ampere, it is showing the Ampere flowing INTO the battery and so it would be better for me to see the Ampere flowing OUT of the battery for the inverter section.
Could it be a way to make this selectable that we can choose either we want to see the AC Ampere or the DC Ampere. Why? Because some marine or RV guys maybe want to see the AC Ampere.
Also the current system of AC Ampere is less exacly because if my inverter is supporting 50W is showing 0.5A and 130W is showing 0.6A but on DC we are talking about more exact values.
So it would be great to see the same base level on one page. Like it was for watts. Watts was easlily transferable to another voltage base. But with Ampere its not and we need to convert it in mind to the battery voltage base level.
This change would be also meant for the AC inputs to be selectable to show the DC Ampere flowing into the battery so I am able to see the same base level.

I hope everything is understandable and this change is easily and quick integratable. :slight_smile:

That would be really really great if this could be integrated.
Thanks a lot.

thanks @mpvader for your work, I just read the Change Log and I can’t find anywhere the information that the charging algorithm that reduces the HV has been changed, is this the case or not in this version?

With the USB Mouse support in beta v.51~2 now I can activate for the first time the New GUI v2.

I’m using the grid meter ET112.
In the new GUI V2 it doesn’t show the Watt - “Grid disconnected”.
In the classic UI it’s okay - AC INPUT 127W.
@Victron: please can you fix it?
Regards, Gerd


Nice, in the beta v.51~2 the GUIMods are back.
