Title: Mode "Legacy P&O" and sweep intervals.
Post by: Jacotenente on July 13, 2016, 10:33:51 AM
Question: Will using this mode and setting my 2,400w fenceline solar panel array for 1 minute and 5% WATTS sweep depth increase my KW/H harvests? Minimal shading. Thanks.

It helps here in coastal weather , quick sweeps ,,come summer & its all clear, check with amount harvested in AH's and the different settings !

Hard to say if it will help or not.  If it did help, I'm not sure exactly how you would know because it wasn't
run with the old setting and the sun hours may have changed temporarily ?

That probably didn't make any sense. Sorry.

Good news: Updated all three Classic's to REV 2096. All three revisions took...no issues. Turned "Follow Me" back on...no issues. The Classic with the "ramping" issue was put back on "Solar" mode. Voltages are now stable with that partial AM shading along the fenceline. Local APP came right back up. Did everything "by the book" on a Windows 10 machine. Initial impressions are good.
