Troubleshooting

Problem

For the Power flow, the Charged energy, and Discharged energy, the respective power flow directions are reversed.

Cause

Your battery interprets negative and positive power values differently than the portal does.

Solution

Change the battery power flow directions for your batteries.

Prerequisites

User group technician or higher

Steps

At system level , go to System settings > Calculations > Battery charging direction.
Select an option for how to interpret the power values of all your system’s batteries:
- Default: Negative power values are interpreted as the battery being charged, and positive values as battery discharging.
- Reverse: Negative power values are interpreted as the battery being discharged, and positive values as battery charging.

Note

Even if you use user-defined terms for battery charging and discharging, you can change the charging direction in the menu. The basic structure of your term formulas remains the same.

Select Save.

The values are corrected now.
