[RE-wrenches] Optics will not accept remote programming

[Maverick Brown]

I think if the MATE3S is left in the settings screen, OpticsRE can’t edit remotely. Exit the Settings section on the MATE3 (entered with the LOCK button) and you should be able to use OpticsRE to make changes. 

Since you might be rolling a truck, bring the latest MATE3S firmware with you, especially the newer AC coupling shift software.

The get above 90%, you can force Bulk charge via the inverter charger and that will charge to the Bulk voltage helping the batteries get a to 90%. But, the next day, the inverter will just be idle unless ReBulk is triggered. The inverter will be in passthru and SunnyBoy does the selling. I added AC relays between the SunnyBoy and their breaker just in case the battery voltage got too high during off grid periods and other Radian charger events.

Good luck and have fun!
