 Check if the V-sense connector is properly connected to the battery terminals. Check if the V-sense connector is properly connected to the battery terminals.
 +
 +==== Err 11 - Battery high ripple voltage ====
 +High DC ripple is usually caused by loose DC cable connections and/or too thin DC wiring.
 +After the inverter has switched off due to high DC ripple voltage, it waits 30 seconds and then restarts.
 +
 +After three restarts followed by a shutdown due to high DC ripple within 30 seconds of restarting, the inverter will shutdown and stops retrying. To restart the inverter, switch it Off and then On.
 +
 +Continuous high DC ripple reduces the inverter life expectancy
 +
 +==== Err 14 - Battery low temperature ====

-If the error does not auto-reset disconnect the charge controller from all power-sources, wait 3 minutes, and power up again. If the error persists the charge controller is probably faulty. +
-A cause for this error can be switching on a very large load on the battery side.+
  
 +Possible causes for an over-current on the battery terminals:
 +  * switching on/off a very large load on the battery side.
 +  * sudden change in irradiance causing a temporary over-power in the mppt.
 +  * overloading the inverter ac output.
 +
 +Possible solutions
 +  * if possible provide adequate cooling for the unit, a cooler unit can handle more current.
 +  * reduce the load on the inverter.
 +  * charge the battery before using the inverter, at higher battery voltages the same amount of power requires less current.
 ==== Err 20 - Maximum Bulk-time exceeded ==== ==== Err 20 - Maximum Bulk-time exceeded ====
-This error can only occur when the maximun bulk-time protection is active. 
-This error will not auto-reset.

 +Note that this error was introduced in v1.36. So when doing an update, it might look like the firmware update caused this issue; but it doesn't. The Solar charger was then already not performing 100% before the update; updating to v1.36 or later merely made the issue more visible. The unit needs to be replaced.
 +
 +==== Err 29 - Over-Charge protection ====
 +This error will auto-reset once the battery voltage drops below the float voltage.
 +To protect the battery from over-charging the battery is disconnected.
 +
 +Possible causes:
 +  * over-sized PV array configuration, if there are too many panels in series the battery voltage cannot be reduced any further. Consider wiring more PV panels in parallel to reduce the voltage.
 +  * configuration issue, check if the battery settings match with the installation (especially absorption and float voltage settings).
 +  * another charger in the system raises the battery voltage above the expected level.

-==== Err 38, Err 39 - PV Input shutdown ==== +==== Err 35 - PV over-power ==== 
-To protect the battery from over-charging the panel input is shorted+ 
 +Applies to the MPPT RS, Inverter RS and Multi RS products. 
 + 
 +Please upgrade your firmware to at least v1.08 as the issues causing this error have been addressed. 
 + 
 +If you are using firmware v1.08 or newer this error indicates that the internal dc voltage is too high. This error will auto-reset. If the error does not auto-reset disconnect the charge controller from all power-sources, wait 3 minutes, and power up again. If the error persists the charge controller is probably faulty. 
 + 
 +==== Err 38, Err 39 and Err 80 to Err 87 - PV Input shutdown ==== 
 + 
 +When these errors show, the PV Input is internally shorted in order to protect the battery from over-charging
 + 
 +Prior to any other trouble shooting, make sure to update to the latest firmware version.
  
 Possible reasons for this error to occur: Possible reasons for this error to occur:
- * The Battery voltage (12/24/48V) is set, or auto-detected, incorrectly. Use VictronConnect to disable auto-detect and set the Battery Voltage to a fixed voltage.+ * The Battery voltage (12/24/36/48V) is set incorrectly. Use VictronConnect to set the right Battery Voltage.
  * There is another device connected to the battery, which is configured to a higher voltage. For example a MultiPlus, configured to equalise at 17 Volts, while in the MPPT this is not configured.  * There is another device connected to the battery, which is configured to a higher voltage. For example a MultiPlus, configured to equalise at 17 Volts, while in the MPPT this is not configured.
- * The battery is disconnected using a manual switch. Ideally the charger should be switched off before disconnecting the battery, this avoids a voltage overshoot on the charger output. If necessary the voltage trip-level for the PV Short protection can be increased by raising the Equalization voltage set-point (note: equalization does not have to be enabled in this case). +
- * The battery is disconnected using a Lithium charge relay connected to the “allow-to-charge” output of a BMS. Consider wiring this signal to the Remote terminal of the charger instead. This shuts down the charger gracefully without creating a voltage overshoot. +
 Error recovery: Error recovery:
- * Error 38: First disconnect the solar panels and disconnect the battery. Wait for 3 minutes, then reconnect the battery first and next the panels. + * Error 38 and Errors 84 to 87: First disconnect the solar panels and disconnect the battery. Wait for 3 minutes, then reconnect the battery first and next the panels. 
- * Error 39: The charger will automatically resume operation once the battery voltage drops below the float level for 1 minute.+ * Error 39: The charger will automatically resume operation once the battery voltage drops below its maximum voltage setting (normally Equalisation or Absorption voltages). It can also takes a minute to reset the fault. 
 + * Errors 80 to 83: First disconnect the solar panels and disconnect the battery, then follow the reset procedure described [[mppt_pv_short_relay_reset|here]]
  
 If the error persists the charge controller is probably faulty. If the error persists the charge controller is probably faulty.
 +
 +==== Err 40 - PV Input failed to shutdown ====
 +
 +If the charger is unable to turn off the PV input, it will go into a safe mode in order to protect the battery from over-charging or having a high voltage on the battery terminals. In order to do that, the charger will stop charging and disconnect its own output. The charger will become faulty.
 +
 +==== Err 41 - Inverter shutdown (PV isolation) ====
 +PV panel isolation resistance too low.
 +Check the PV array cabling and panel isolation, the inverter restarts automatically once the issue is resolved.
 +
 +==== Err 42 - Inverter shutdown (PV isolation) ====
 +The ground leakage current in the PV array exceeds the allowed 30mA limit.
 +Check the PV array cabling and panel isolation.
 +Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
 +
 +==== Err 43 - Inverter shutdown (Ground Fault) ====
 +The voltage difference between Neutral and Ground is too high.
 +
 +Inverter or Multi (not connected to the grid):
 +  * The internal ground relay is activated but the voltage over the relay is too high. The relay might be damaged.
 +Multi (connected to the grid):
 +  * The ground wire in the installation is not present or not connected properly.
 +  * Line and Neutral are swapped in the installation.
 +
 +This error will not auto-reset. Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
 +
 +==== Err 50, Err 52 - Inverter overload, Inverter peak current ====
 +Some loads like motors or pumps draw large inrush currents in a start-up situation. In such circumstances, it is possible that the start-up current exceeds the over current trip level of the inverter. In this case the output voltage will quickly decrease to limit the output current of the inverter. If the over current trip level is continuously exceeded, the inverter will shut down: wait 30 seconds and then restart.
 +
 +The Inverter can supply more power than the nominal power level for a short time. If the time is exceed the inverter stops. 
 +
 +After three restarts followed by another overload within 30 seconds of restarting, the inverter will shutdown and remain off. To restart the inverter, switch it Off, then On.
 +
 +If the error persists reduce the load on the AC out terminal by switching off or disconnecting appliances.
 +
 +==== Err 51 - Inverter temperature too high ====
 +A high ambient temperature or enduring high load may result in shut down to over temperature.
 +Reduce load and/or move inverter to better ventilated area and check for obstructions near the fan outlets.
 +
 +The inverter will restart after 30 seconds. The inverter will not stay off after multiple retries.
 +
 +==== Err 53 - Inverter output voltage ====
 +If the battery voltage is getting low and a large load is applied to the AC output the inverter is unable to maintain the proper output voltage.
 +Re-charge the battery or reduce the AC loads to continue operation.
 +
 +==== Err 54 - Inverter output voltage ====
 +If the battery voltage is getting low and a large load is applied to the AC output the inverter is unable to maintain the proper output voltage.
 +Re-charge the battery or reduce the AC loads to continue operation.
 +
 +If the error immediately pops up when switching on the inverter (without load) on a full battery the cause is most likely a broken replaceable internal fuse. Contact your Victron dealer for support. 
 +==== Err 55, Err 56, Err 58 - Inverter self test failed ====
 +The inverter performs diagnostic tests before it activates its output. In the case that one of these tests fails an error message is displayed and the inverter does not turn on.
 +
 +First try to restart the inverter, by switching it Off, and then On. If error persists the inverter is probably faulty.
 +
 +==== Err 57 - Inverter ac voltage on output ====
 +There is already AC voltage on the AC out terminal before switching on the inverter. Check that the AC out is not connected to a mains outlet or to another inverter.
 +
 +This error will not auto-reset. Check the installation and restart the unit using the power-switch.
 +
 +==== Err 59 - ACIN1 relay test fault ====
 +
 +Automatic checking of the disconnect means failure.
 +This usually indicates a broken relay (sticky contact) in the AC input stage.

 ==== Err 67 - BMS Connection lost ==== ==== Err 67 - BMS Connection lost ====
-The charger is configured to be controlled by a BMS, but it does not receive any control messages from a BMS. The charger stopped charging, as a safety precaution. 
  
-Check the connection between the charger and the BMS.+This error shows when the charger is configured to be controlled by a BMS, but does not receive any BMS control messages. In that situation, the charger stops charging by reducing its output voltage to the battery base voltage (12V/24V/36V/48V). This is a safety mechanism, the reason to still enable the output is to allow a system to self-recover from a battery low situation.
  
-__How to reset the charger, to de-couple it from the BMS__+Solar Chargers only show this error when there is solar power available and thus the device is ready to initiate charging. It does not show at night. And in case there is a permanent problem, the error will raise in the morning and clear at night, and so forth.
  
-When the charger needs to operate in stand-alone mode again, not controlled by a BMS, it needs to be reset:+Solution: check the connection between the charger and the BMS.
  
-  * VE.Can solar chargers, go into the setup menu, and change setting ‘BMS’ from ‘Y’ to ‘N’ (setup item 31). +__How to reconfigure the charger to standalone mode__
-  * VE.Direct solar chargers, reset the charger to factory defaults with VictronConnect, and then reconfigure it.+
  
-Note that (solar-)chargers automatically configure themselves to be BMS-controlled when they are connected to one; either direct or via a Color Control GX or Venus GX.+Our Chargers and Solar Chargers automatically configure themselves to be BMS-controlled when they are connected to one; either direct or via a GX Device. And that setting is semi-permanent: power cycling the charger will not reset it. 
 + 
 +When removing charger from such system, and reusing it in a system without BMS, that setting needs to be cleared.  
 +Here is how to do that: 
 + 
 +  * Chargers with LCD display: go into the setup menu, and change setting ‘BMS’ from ‘Y’ to ‘N’ (setup item 31). 
 +  * Other chargers: reset the charger to factory defaults with VictronConnect, and then reconfigure it. 
 + 
 +==== Err 68 - Network misconfigured ==== 
 +Applies to SmartSolar/BlueSolar MPPTs VE.Can (FW version v1.04 or higher) and SmartSolar VE.Direct MPPTs (FW version v1.47). 
 + 
 +To clear the error on the SmartSolar VE.Direct MPPTs update the FW version to v1.48 or higher. 
 + 
 +To clear the error on the SmartSolar/BlueSolar MPPTs VE.Can, update the software. If the error persists, it will be because the charger is connected with both a VE.Direct cable __and__ on VE.Can. That is not supported. Remove one of the two cables. The error will disappear and the charger will resume normal operation, within a minute. 
 + 
 +__Background__ 
 + 
 +Error 68 indicates that the charger detects multiple conflicting network sources, with the same priority, trying to send the same information to the charger. VE.Can and VE.Direct interfaces have both the same priority level, and BLE (using VE.Smart Networking) has a lower priority.  
 + 
 +Having a higher priority level means that, if the same information (e.g. Battery voltage sense) is being received from both VE.Can and BLE (using VE.Smart Network) by the charger, the information on VE.Can will be used and the one coming from BLE will be ignored. 
 + 
 +Now, if the same information is being received from two interfaces that have the same priority level (as VE.Can and VE.Direct), the charger does not know how to prioritize those, causing error 68 to be triggered. 
 + 
 +==== Err 69 - Network misconfigured ==== 
 +Applies to Inverter RS and Multi RS models. Firmware versions 1.11 and higher. 
 + 
 +This error indicates an issue in the configuration. There are units present on the same can bus that have different system configurations. 
 +Please ensure that all units are set to either "Single Phase" or "Three Phase" and all units are set to either "50Hz" or "60Hz"
 +All units will remain off until the configuration is fixed, after which the units will resume operation. 
 + 
 +==== Err 70 - Network misconfigured ==== 
 +Applies to Inverter RS models. Firmware versions 1.11 and higher. 
 + 
 +Inverter RS units cannot be paired with a Multi RS and/or Transfer Switch.

 +==== Err 72 - Phase rotation ==== 
 +Applies to Inverter RS and Multi RS models. Firmware versions 1.12 and higher. 
 + 
 +Check the if the phase order is correct L1->L2->L3. 
 + 
 +The inverters remain operational, they won't connect to the grid. Once the issue is resolved the units will connect. 
 + 
 +==== Err 73 - Multiple AC inputs ==== 
 +Applies to Inverter RS and Multi RS models. Firmware versions 1.12 and higher. 
 + 
 +Per phase only one active connection to the grid is allowed, remove or switch off the redundant connection. 
 + 
 +The inverters remain operational, they won't connect to the grid. Once the issue is resolved the units will connect. 
 + 
 +==== Err 74 - Phase overload ==== 
 +Applies to Inverter RS and Multi RS models. Firmware versions 1.12 and higher. 
 + 
 +The number of inverters in parallel doesn't match with the transfer capabilities of the ac input relay of the Multi RS or Transfer switch. 
 +Firmware v1.12 does not support parallel units and a grid connection, so any combination of a Multi RS with a grid connection with more than one unit in parallel will trigger this error code on the Multi RS. The Multi RS only supports 3 units in 3-phase configuration at the moment. 
 + 
 +The inverters remain operational, they won't connect to the grid. Once the issue is resolved the units will connect.

 +==== Err 201 - Internal DC voltage error ====
 +Applies to the MPPT RS, Inverter RS and Multi RS.
 +
 +This “Internal DC voltage measurement error”, is raised in case an internal (high-) voltage measurement does not match certain criteria. 
 +
 +First, make sure to update the firmware to v1.08 or later. The limits were too strict in earlier versions. And it could trigger falsely during MPPT start-up in the morning and MPPT shutdown in the evening.
 +
 +If the error still occurs after updating to v1.08 or later, then it means that a measurement circuit inside the unit is broken.
