Victron smart solar controller switch is default to position 2 for battery configuration.
I have gc2 deep cycle and not sure what position is best.

herer is the page from the book

Fully programmable charge algorithm (see the software page on our website) and eight preprogrammed charge algorithms, selectable with a rotary switch:

Note 1: divide all values by two in case of a 12V system.
Note 2: equalize normally off, see sect. 3.8.1 to activate
(do not equalize VRLA Gel and AGM batteries)
Note 3: any setting change performed with Bluetooth or via VE.Direct will override the rotary switch setting. Turning the rotary switch will override priori
 
Out of curiosity, is your original post easy for you to read?

Use phone + bluetooth + VictronConnect to custom program it specifically for the voltages your battery needs.
