My TS-MPPT-60 charger is ignoring my custom settings for absorption voltage for some reason. Perhaps someone has experienced the same thing and can give me some pointers. I've used custom settings for years, but now when I got new batteries, I changed the settings and somehow things don't work anymore.
I've set the dip-switches to allow for custom settings. I've programmed the charger using MSView, and double checked that my settings are indeed in the charger.
Regulation voltage: 27.67 V
Temp comp: 0 (in other words turned off)
Absorption time: 1 minute
Absorption Ext: disabled
Battery Service Reminder: disabled
Float voltage: 26.96 V
Float cancel voltage: disabled
Equalize voltage: disabled
HVD: disabled
Max regulation limit: 28.80 V
With these settings I expect the charger to be in bulk mode (or MPPT as they call it in the Live View) until it reaches 27.67 V, then switch to absorption for one minute, then switch to float and hold 26.96 V. This is not what happens. Instead it stays in bulk until only 27.27 V is reached, then switches immediately to float. So it makes two errors: it ignores the bulk/absorption voltage, and it ignores the absorption stage. How can I fix this?
