Still having the same problem with pulsed charging. Now testing with REC fw 2_53 (volt regulation) and WS fw 2.5.3.
Have deactivated RPM and now use RPM from nmea, as well as changed the feature in from forced float to half power mode, but none of the parts have solved the problem with pulsating charging.
Does anyone know why the WS500 sends out PGN electrical.batteries.0.current and electrical.batteries.0.volt? This is already in the NMEA network and is sent out by Victron (system battery). I then get two units that send the same PGN (conflict?) The logical thing would be if WS only sends out PGN related to the dynamo. See my first picture in this thread.
Pulsating charging occurs even with moderate charging, so ALT temperature, battery temperature, max volt, max current values or cell imbalance should not be the problem.
Have also tried to remove devices from the nmea network with the exception of the main battery (rec bms) in case this could create conflicts, but this does not solve the problem either.
Have also gone through all cables on WS 500 and measured resistance in nmea network (60ohm) so it is also in order.
Attach my settings on the WS500.
Dynamo:
-Alternator capacity > 500A (2x250A dynamo)
-Repurpose BTS as 2nd ATS > yes/activated
-Fixed ramp > disabled
-Sense RPM via stator wire > disabled (uses nmea RPM)
-Use RPM to select Half power mode > disabled.
System:
-Current shunt at the battery? > deactivated
-current shunt at alternator? > activated/yes
-Shunt backwards? > activated/yes
- Brand > REC
- Model > Active BMS
-Max current per BMS > 500A
-Ignored sensor: BTS sensor and stator wire.
