I just wanted to make sure I am using the correct settings on my Victron SmartSolar 100/50 MPPT and SmartShunt to go along with a Renogy 200AH AGM battery. I have attached pictures of both the MPPT and shunt settings and the specs of my battery are below. A couple things I'm not sure about are:
1) Is "Cycle Use" and "Absorption" the same?
2) When a range of voltages is provided is there a preference for what to use? Currently I have it set in the middle.
3) I read elsewhere on the forum that "charged voltage" on the shunt should be set .1v less than the absorption voltage of the charger, is this correct?
4) I cannot find anywhere that renogy publishes a peukert value. Victron manual says to leave it as default unless it's lithium...
5) Tail current? I don't know if that should be changed or not so it is default.
6) Battery specs have two different temperature compensation values, which one is supposed to be used for the charger?
