Hi all, Solar noob here, tried to find this in the forum here somewhere but could not...

I have the Kodak OG-Plus 5.48 and need guidance on what setting 12 and 13 means, the "back to grid" and "back to discharge" settings. 

1. From my understanding if back to grid is set to 47v the and if the batteries reaches below 47v Inverter will start charging from utility (if it is there)

2. Back to Discharge I actually have no idea. It is set to 53v. 

3. What happens if system is in between 47v (back to grid) and discharge (53v). Charge from solar or batteries or both?

4. What happens if system is in above 53v discharge (53v)?

Thanks!

Refer to answer here. 

 

Awesome thanks man! Appreciate the help.

Setting 16 is on SNU (solar and utility will charge), so if I understand correct:

- Below 47v = Use grid for load and charging of batteries

- Above 47v and below 53 = Use both Solar and Utility for load and charging of batteries

- Above 53 = Use only solar for load and charging of batteries

So in the ideal world you want to be using solar only during the day for both load and charging (above 53 (im thinking i should reduce this, 50??)) and then in the evening fall back to batteries which should have enough power to not fall below 47v.
