Hey guys,
I have a Victron multiplus 24/3000 that is powering more than 75% of my house via a sub panel. I do have the multiplus AC tied, but use assistants to ignore the AC input based on battery SOC.
What i am looking to do however is to get the multiplus to "assist" the battery/solar from AC input only when it is needed. I know there is functionality (power assist) that works in the exact opposite way i am looking for. Power assist takes power from the batteries to assist large loads that the AC input cant handle.
I am looking for the AC input to only get tied in when i have large loads that the battery /solar cant handle. For example, my AC load is 3000 watts. I plug in a vacuum and the AC load jumps to 4000 watts. I want the 3000 watts to come from battery/solar, and then have the AC input ONLY make up the difference of 1000 watts.
Ive been plsying around with the settings for hours, and i have gotten the AC input to function based on AC load, but when the AC input is turned on it powers ALL of the AC loads and completely shuts off the battery/ solar.
Thoughts?
