I had a similar problem a while back and it turned out to be the FNDC calling 
the shots.. Unplug the FNDC (if you’re using one).. see what happens.

Hello All,
.
I have a Radian 8048 system in service for over 10 years now. It sold back 
quite normally until the last several months -3.- FM60 CC's are set to grid tie 
mode and  viewable and programmed from the Mate3s / OpticsRE. This issue 
loosely correlates to replacing one of the CCs several months ago.

Trouble is all -3- charge controllers are almost always in a float mode. The 
radian does sell, but at a small KW compared to what it used to before the 
frequent float mode started popping up. If I remember correctly, ideally the 
CCs should always be in bulk charge when sellback occurs.

I have the CC and inverter charger float set to about 1 vdc higher then the 
inverter's sell volts, as I believe was recommended way back when. Hard to 
understand what changed, but something did. I've checked the relevant setpoints 
many times and can't find anything obviously amiss.

Does a sell mode tech note paper exist still for the Radian system? Did it 
ever? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
