Good day,<\/p>\n

Just now we released CCGX v2.03. This update fixes an issue with\u00a0a (too) short absorption time for lead batteries. Note that this is really only for lead batteries. The issue does\u00a0not\u00a0apply<\/strong> to lithium batteries.<\/p>\n

The problem occurs when the charge type in VEConfigure is set to ‘Adaptive’, or ‘Adaptive + Battery Safe’. The latter is the default setting for lead batteries: GEL, AGM, OPzV, OPzS and Traction.\u00a0Systems configured for Lithium batteries are not affected as then the charge type is set to a fixed absorption time.<\/p>\n

The problem was introduced in CCGX firmware version v2.00.<\/p>\n

What must be done?<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

In systems where the CCGX has already been upgraded\u00a0to v2.00 or later, I recommend you to\u00a0update it to v2.03<\/a>. This includes all ESS systems<\/a>, by definition.<\/p>\n

Systems that still have their CCGX running on v1.74 or earlier do not need to be updated. Unless running a Hub-1 Assistant, policy 1 and 3, that is. See\u00a0below, system type C and D for details on that.<\/p>\n

Details of affected systems<\/h3>\n

System type A (BMV & CCGX v2.00 or later)<\/span><\/p>\n
