Kid endamps: Section under construction???

I've just finished to install a small 12V system with the new kid (production unit) and WBjr here : 415Ah AGM Surrette, 470W PV with Magnum 2812 on epanel. When time came to tune the kid, I looked for endamps value in the different menus. I finally found it, pressed enter and saw an interesting "SECTION UNDER CONSTRUCTION"... After going through the different menus, I noticed that the WBjr SOC was doing its job nicely. I had updated this kid to the last FW (1722 I think).
So my question would be: Is  there really no EA setting (WBjr + Shunt) at this time on the kid or am I missing something???
Thanks

The end amps is now functional on the unit, read the Manual about functionality and Shunt selector kid vs wbjr shunt.
The website list 1722 as the latest revision as you mention but the latest firmware is 1742, we will get that fix as soon as we can mean while I will attach the latest revision here sou you can update your unit.

Thanks,

Hi Mario,
Thanks for the update but a little late.
This kid is now installed at the customer's cabin and is running on time only, 80km/2 hours away from me...

I have a production unit and the firmware is pre 1722.  Which firmware should I install the 1722 or the one posted by Mario here.  I have a 260 watt panel and am charging 2 6v AGM 225 AH batteries wired in a series in a little tear drop camper.  Thanks
