Erasing internal Data log for Tristar MPPT 60

Good night,

I have searched the manual and online, and unless I am in dire need of glasses, I am unable to find out how to erase the internal data log. I have spurious entries due to controller resets and config changes. Would like to clear them out and start fresh.

The push button only resets a fault, and the menu will reset AH values and min/max battery values from the display =

"This display screen can be used to reset the reset-able Ah value. Additionally, this operation will reset the battery mini- mum and battery maximum values displayed in the Operating Displays. Hold the right arrow pushbutton for 2 seconds.."

Anyone know how?

    Do you have "Ms view" installed on your computer?

    Hi Slappy,

    Yes I have it installed but do not see any way to erase the log. I got this reply from Morningstar's tech support this afternoon :

    "Hello David, Unfortunately, the TriStar Data Log can not be cleared." :(

    There is a portion of the log that can be reset, but you cannot erase the whole thing.
