So can you feed into the grid with more than 5000 watt per phase by setting a negative grid setpoint of, say… -6000W?
While the Grid meter was activated in the MultiRS settings I was unable to feed back even 2000W in L1 from the MultiRS if the SolarEdge inverter was already feeding back over all three phases. At some point it was even charging the battery from both its MPPtrackers and the grid despite a clearly negative Grid Setpoint.
With the Grid Meter deactivated in my MultiRS settings (even though it was still enabled and visible in Venus OS and connected on CAN) I was not limited in controlling my MultiRS by ESS Setpoint.
With my 25A main fuse on each phase, and my MultiRS and SolarEdge inverter both feeding in I obviously never wanted my MultiRS to feed in over 5kW on L1 by itself. My NodeRed calculation aimed for 23A feedin for the both of them together…
Exactly the same issue as I am having. I want the Multi RS to feed in more than 5000W (including the SolarEdge) but it should not exceed 25A. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with Node-red, so I am not able to design a node red flow that allows to control the Multi RS feed in without the Grid meter activated.
@dognose did you get any update on this from Victron staff?

Update: although the maximum of 5000W feed in is still persistent, today I noticed that the Multi RS-es do allow feed FROM grid to be above 5000W when charging the batteries from grid:
This means the issue with maximum 5000W per phase on the external grid meter only applies to feeding back into the grid, not from charging from grid.
