Dec 14, 2022
- Add Polish and Japanese translations
- Switch to fully optional firmware updates: Settings will remain enabled while a firmware update is available

Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS):
- Add initial support via Bluetooth. Requires a new firmware version that is not publicly available yet.

Multi RS:
- Changes that require a new firmware that is not publicly available:
- Add UPS function setting
- Add "Moderate generator load changes" setting
- Split the "minimuim inverters to operate" functionality in two settings
- Add AC input control settings.
- Fix inconsistency on how frequency is shown for AC Out 2
- Use correct AC out power when AC IN relay is open
- Show AC currents
- Warn before updating that the inverter will switch off during a firmware update and explain how to keep AC loads powered

MPPT/Inverter/Multi RS:
- Allow NMEA2000 instance number change
- Add option to reset BMS control

VE.Bus Inverter/Chargers:
- Add firmware v500.
- Add a setting to disable VSense
- Add instant readout functionality
- Implement BMS v2 firmware update mechanism
- Add BMSv2 firmware v113

VE.Bus Smart dongle:
- Add firmware v1.13:
- Add Support for instant readout functionality
- Improve number of values shown in secondary mode. Secondary mode now shows AC input an output voltages, currents, frequencies and power values.

Lynx SmartBMS:
- Add firmware v1.06:
- The low voltage shut down delay has been reduced from 2 hours to 5 minutes.
- The behavior of the low SoC protection has changed. With v1.05 the BMS remains ON with only ATD disabled until a low cell voltage occurs. This with contactor closed and AUX output powered. Now, the BMS will turn OFF after 5 minutes if the charging current is less than 500mA. This means that the contactor will be opened and AUX output and ATC/ATD will be disabled. This ensures the lowest possible power consumption for the BMS of only 0.3mA for all system voltages.
- Improved wakeup behavior when the system was shut down due to low battery voltage, low cell voltage or low SoC. With previous versions, the system wakes up when the charging voltage is 0.5V higher than the battery voltage. Now that we turn OFF the BMS earlier and the solar chargers lose their BMS connection, the output voltage of the solar chargers will be 12V (on 12V systems). To be sure the BMS turns ON at sunrise, we have added a new wake-up reason: if the charging voltage is above 11.7V. This is 23.4V for 24V systems and 46.8V for 48V systems.
- Two seconds delay added to (not-)allowed-to-discharge to prevent unexpected load disconnect at glitches on the Smart Lithium BMS signals.



MPPT Solar Chargers:
- Add firmware v3.11 & v1.61:
- Improve battery voltage auto-detect corner cases
- SmartSolar Control display: no longer show the battery voltage setting on the display at first power-up, to simplify the process and interaction with auto-detect. The setting is still available in the settings menu.
- Add support to relay remote control mode, which allows the user to manually select the relay state.

SmartBMV & SmartShunt:
- Add firmware v4.12:
- Renamed "Start Synchronized" setting (70) into "SOC On Reset". Also the options for the setting have been renamed ("Off" to "Clear", "On" to "100", "Trend" to "Keep"). Also the default has changed from "On" to "Keep".
- SOC is retained when executing a "Restore Defaults".

SmartBatterySense:
- Fix firmware update availability is not reported for SmartBatterySense rev2 models
5.77
