I looked through the manual that came with my classic and didn't see this covered.
Ahr 43 it's on the IN side so does this mean that its brought in 43 amp hours worth of power?

Also what is the VOC reading used for?

I'm just trying to understand what all the information is so I utilize it :)

I connected my unit to my router and can view the statics now from anywhere. Would anyone want to share which charts they and look and why? You can select Power, Energy, Input Voltage, Battery Voltage, Output Current, Input Current, Time In Float

Thanks, Mike

 I believe you are meaning the INPUT voltage and INPUT Current, if that is so that is what is arriving at the Classic CC and the output is what comes out after thee CC does its magic...

Watt-Hours and Amp-Hours are always calculated based on the battery output.

Yes, it's shown on the IN  side of the screen but that is only volts and/or amps (IN amps for the 3rd status screen)

Not enough space with the large font to show A-Hrs on the OUT side.

So what does the Ahr Mean?

Hi Mike,  am not quite certain what you are asking,  but here is some information on Amp-hours:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampere-hour

Voc displayed on the Status screen where it is shown,  should be the PV Open-Circuit Voltage recorded from the most recent Sweep.

It can be useful in determining just how heavily-loaded the PV array is,  by comparing that Voc vs the Vin shown on the Status screens.  It could also be useful as a measure of how close the CC is getting to HyperVoc,   and so on.

In the earlier question,  43 Ah have been output by the Classic,  but this in terms of total production,  on this Status screen,  it is not a measure of how much of that production went into the battery,  verses to the inverter and its loads.

As you do more reading,  and observing your system's data, more things will become clear,  and more questions will arise  --  we all are still learning.

FWIW,  Vic
