Do I need to do anything with changing any settings on the VictronConnect app that I installed to monitor my battery and solar.  I have the SmartSolar: MPPT 75/15 that came with the 2021 Tab 400 BD.  I saw another forum stating that you had to change some of it by it was all like a foreign language to me. Does anyone have a picture or cheat sheet on what they should be or do I just leave everything the way it was when I followed instructions to download.

    I have the two 6 volt AGM batteries that came with my Tab 400 boondock so I’m not sure my settings would be the same???

    No, your settings would not be the same as lithium batteries, and I believe Battleborn are lithium.

    If you can't find these settings here on the forum, you might contact your battery manufacturer tech support with the settings questions. Look at the app, press the settings (Gear) icon in the upper right, and select 'Battery'. There will be a list of settings that you can ask for specifics about.

    (I'm not near our Tab right now, so I can't elaborate. I can get mine for you later today, but mine aren't for AGM, just standard flooded.)

    My Vmax AGM’s settings are absorption 14.6V and float 13.6V. Equalization is set at 16.2, but the manufacturer said to turn automatic off and not use that function.
