Default Evic battery state indicator question.

Hope everyone is trucking well.
Trying to see what others know about this reading.
Replaced original battery a couple of months back,and have been keeping eye on the reading.
On start shows 11v then 12v then settles at 13.
This seems to be normal but at times driving it reads 14v.
Just trying to understand what activity the read out is actually displaying .
Cheers and thanks in advance.
2014 overland 3.0 diesel.
Still the awesome car it always is.

Just returned from a trip up north and I one of my caravan battery shunt cables came loose over a 200km stretch of corrugations and I unknowingly discharged my entire battery bank (450amps of lithium) that night and next day with the wife using the air fryer,coffee machine, split system A/C and thermo mix ,on the way home I charged 450amps of lithium from the car in an 8 hour period,roughly 20amps through the solar and 40 through the victron Dc-Dc
Battery reading on the dash stayed at 13v the entire day disregarding when I had to restart the engine from refueling, thought that was impressive which shows it is very capable.
