I have connected a Multiplus-ii 4k5. All loads on AC out. I have also connected the PV inverter to the output. I can see PV power on the grid meter and on the input of the Inverter. The problem is I cannot see this energy on the VRM Portal. The solar energy is visible on the left upper corner as an **actual** , but you cannot see it in the **installation time-graph**.”Naar Net” stays 0. The energy is also visible in the AC input power widget.

Thank you for your suggestions how to visualize this.

Can the system see the solar inverter over modbus/network? Do you have a separate meter for solar? Do you have a separate grid meter? What did you set for “position of AC loads”?

No solar inverter modes. No separate meter for solar. I have a separate grid meter. “position of AC loads” is “AC input and output”. I’m not sure but I think I also have tried to set this to Output only….

Without a compatible pv inverter or energy meter on your pv inverter it will not display in vrm and can not calculate it

If you have no loads on ac in set it to loads on ac output only

Well, I tweaked the grid meter a bit to measure solar. Now you can see solar power. The “to grid” box however stays 0. I also set the loads to “output only”.

Again if the AC input widget is showing negative power, the “to grid” value should not be 0:

What do you think?

It looks like this (or similar) topic was also raised in the old Victron Community portal:

[VRM is not showing energy sent to the grid - VictronEnergy](https://communityarchive.victronenergy.com/questions/83827/vrm-is-not-showing-energy-sent-to-the-grid.html#:~:text=Name%20%22To%20Grid%22%20implies%20that,system%20will%20do%20the%20same).

unfortunately I also do not see a solution there……
