Hi,

I just updated to MNGP2054 and CLASSIC2056. I did the left-right arrow on bootup to reset.

I had this problem previously but I thought an update (the 32-bit bug) might have fixed it.

At the 'MORE' page on the Whizbang Junior Shunt page, the Lifetime +AH gives me 4943029 and the -AH 37132 as I write this. The +AH figure would be nice if it was real.

In the logs menu, the lifetime A-H is 559, the lifetime KW-H is 862.3

Ooooops !   That doesn't sound right, I totally agree.

How long has your Classic been running ?   Maybe the Amp-Hours have some kind of
overflow calculation error ?   Getting an idea of how long it's been running might
give an indication of how many amp-hours this might occur at.

A year and a half Bob.

As I write this the +AH is 4943515 and the -AH is -37512.

I seem to recall that the figure jumped roughly around the time 35536 was due... which is why I suspected an overflow.

Yeah, 16 bits worth !  Does sound kind of suspicious, doesn't it ?

Will look into it.  Thank you !
