Work in progress.
Rev 86 of software development
3. Challenges,
1. RS232C comms to MPPT( to download Battery V and Current and PV power)
2. Creating stack to prioritise use of excess capacity automaticlly:
1. Battery boosting at 45V from utility. (if NO utility shed loads) Also for total computer failure, or MPPT or Batteries or Panels.
