Tri-Metric programming help
I just installed a tri-metric 2025 in the outback 230rs last night and now need help with the programing values of P1, P2, and P3. The battery that came with the OB is a Crown MAR-500: MCA 550 20 A...

Just a swag!!
Trojans site shows the decrease in AH capacity between 5 hours discharge and 20 hours as about 20%. At the 65 minute rate this battery is 27 AH; giving the benefit of the doubt, take 27 by 140% (120% increase from one hour to 5, times 120% increase from 5 to 20 hours) use 38 AH.
I tried finding some table that went from the 1 hour rate to the 20 rate, and just can't find any, so you'll have to swag it.
As others have said, this is not the right battery. That said, sometimes you just gotta use what you got, not what you wish you had. This ought to work well enough to get you in the ball park.
Good Luck,
Doug
