Have had the big EVE 280 bank running in the boat for 8 months now and still haven't been able to figure out myself how to get the Victron 702 reading the same as the JBD BMS app.
I get up in the morning, look at the Victron and it reads batts at 72% but reality is, according to JBD app 54%
I know it has something to do with the JBD BMS having reading a 280ah nominal but setting a 224ah cycle capacity (-20%) so the gauge on the app never reads higher than 80%.
(It seems I can change those numbers in the parameter setting but as yet, have not.)
But the Victron, when you put in battery capacity and then manually sync when batteries are accepting very limited charge reads as 100%
Things are never going to line up.
So here I am asking how to get them both the same or at least a lot closer.
Added bonus.....it'd be nice to get closer to 840ah nominal, say 750ah (-10%) than the current 672ah (-20%) cycle capacity that JBD has it throttled back to.
