Inverter/Charger setting on Spyder

OUr Spyder showed flooded on the inverter charger setting but we have AGM batteries. Should we change to AGM? We have a 2018 Phaeton

Yes, it should have been done when the batteries were installed.

Could be, but I don’t see how resetting the inverter would change settings in the Spyder system unless you reset that also and it defaulted.

I have a RED and don't know what inverter you have. Ours is a Magnum 2000.
I sent an email to Magnum and asked since I intend to get rid of the flooded and get AGM's.
Ours inverter panel has AGM-1 and AGM-2 settings.
I plan to get Duracell GC2 batteries from Sam's Club so the Magnum rep said to set it for AGM-2.
Tiffin normally gives accurate advice but I prefer to go to the manufacturer of the item in question if possible.

The more I think about it, the default on the inverter could be flooded and when it was reset it went back to flooded. Your inverter manual would say.
