Default settings for LiFePO4 batteries
The default absorption voltage is to 14.2V (28.4V, 56.8V) and the absorption time is fixed and set to 2 hours. The float voltage is set at 13.5V (27V, 54V). Equalization is disabled. The tail current is set to 0A, this so that the full absorption time is available for cell balancing. The temperature compensation is disabled and the low temperature cut off is set to 5. These settings are the recommended settings for LiFePO4 batteries, but they can be adjusted if the battery manufacturer specifications advise otherwise.

Yep I believe I’m right, yet you dismiss how BB had pre-programmed my Victron, though I hadn’t requested it (great customer service!!)…I only took my limited time to write to help lead you outta an apparent chosen state of purgatory… My solution is Victron’s solution and is your EASY solution…

Trust that whatever they suggest in writing (?? - link doesn’t work) is entirely superfluous to me, as I don’t lend it any more credibility than that which Victron recommends, and as I stated (consider re-reading?…), BB had opened the box and pre-programmed the charge controller for the LiFePo4 algorithm - per Victron’s manual and handed it to me…This was a physical ‘in store’ transaction, and I’ve had a grand total of ZERO issues, so do whatever you like, but it’ll never work properly until you realize that Victron knows their product and they state that the rotary selector needs to be on #7…
BTW, there’s nothing special about BB’s or anyone else’s lithium LFP chemistry (Lithium is what it is, period…), the primary difference is in cell grade quality, cell type ( pouch, prismatic, or cylindrical…), warranty (you get what your willing to pay $$ for…), and assemblage technique, while BMS’s all do about the same thing (i.e. catastrophe avoidance)…Trust, that there’s no ‘magic secret sauce’ involved…

Well I find that rather odd since I live near by and was at BattkeBorn when they handed me my victron charge controller and they’d advance pre-programmed it for exactly what the Victron user manual called for, and mine works perfectly - it must depend on which day of the week you speak to the BB fella’s - I donno?…
