Looking for some help

I have 8 - 200 watt solar panels that are hooked up in the following 4 panels in series for 85 volts, 4 panels for 85 volts, For a total of 87 volts at the charge controller.
I have 4 -12 volt 200Ah batteries 6 cells each in series for a total of 48 volts. Below is the battery specs
• Nominal Voltage 12V
• Number of cell 6
the float setting on one of the batteries is 13.8 max
the charge setting on one of the batteries is 14.8
• Design life 10 years with proper maintenance
• Nominal Capacity 77F(25C)
• 20 hour rate (10A 10.8V) 200Ah
• 10 hour rate (18.7A 10.8V) 187Ah
• 5 hour rate (35.8A 10.5V) 179Ah
• 1 hour rate (126A 9.6V) 126Ah
I have a 2,000 watt pure sine inverter charger- 48 volt – 16 amps.
I also have an Outback Flexmax 80 charge controller. The charge controller will stay in the sleeping phase.
What are the settings on the advance screen set at?
The float should be set at 55.2 and absorb should be set at 59.2 right? Or, am I missing something?

IMO, if you daily cycling the batteries you set absorb=float = 59.2v. If you use it for backup or not use your bank for days you set "bulk absorb" = 59.2v and float 55.2v.
