Re; 100% SOC,
The controller has no idea at what soc the bank is at. Yesterday, it was showing 72%, but after I temporarily disconnected things to do a flat comparison, and reconnected, soc was 50%, meanwhile the bank was at about 95%.
I don't' know the process by which it would ever know. At least the Trimetric counts amps in and amps out with an adjustable discount for amps in. But it does not account for Peukert effect.
The controller has no way of knowing what portion of its output goes to the battery and what may go directly to loads. It doesn't know if amps have been added to the battery through other means. It doesn't know how many amps have been discharged from the battery. Determining SOC from battery voltage while charging or discharging is not possible. Does the manual say how it is supposed to work?
True dat.
No, the manual says very little, if anything about what constitutes full. I edited while you were posting... there is a 'voltage comp' choice in charge mode. My guess is, this will not affect anything, seeing as the controller switches to float once Vboost is reached, regardless.
