VRM Dashboard negative Loads shown as 0W on the Critical Loads Panel

I have connected 2 Microinverters on the “Critical Loads” connector of a MP II (no Loads connected) and do wonder, why the generated Power is shown as 0W on the VRM Dashboard? However it is displayed correctly under "Advanced. I assume, the Critical Loads Panel on the Dashboard cannot show negative values, right?

Hi completly normal, if you want to display it you need a energy meter on your micro inverters

yap, thats what i read so far. Thx. I wonder, if its worth to be treated as a bug or alternatively as feature request at Victron, as it seems to be a minor change and easy to fix…

I would like to vote for this fix, too!
The (computed) loads and the critical loads both may have genuine negative values. When negative, they appear with minus in the console, why are they shown falsely as “0W” in VRM dashboard?

?! the console DOES show a production on AcOut as negative. (other than the AcIn loads, they show as 0 when production is more than load, too) The internal energy meter does its job.
Me too: wonder, why VRM does not show it as it is. (negative)

Yes it is, very strange, i asked the same question years ago… its still like this so completly “normal” :blush:
