R.Series in QGIS 3.14.3 GRASS 7.6.1 returning no data value outputs only [closed]

Question

I'm using QGIS 3.14.3 with GRASS 7.6.1 and trying to add together the values for 3 raster layers using r.series as I'm told this handles no data values better than raster calculator. Please see log below as r.series is only returning no data values.

Answer 1

There is a small problem with the implementation of the GRASS r.series algorithm in QGIS:
The Ignore values outside this range (lo,hi) parameter is not optional (yet).

You need to explicitly specify values in those fields. Make sure that the pixel values of your input rasters are within that range.

A similar question was asked on January 31. The answer was not accepted and the bug was not reported:
r.series - no output 'ERROR 6: SetColorTable() only supported for Byte or UInt16 bands in TIFF format.!

I forgot that subject. Reviewing now again I find that fortunately Markus Neteler reported the error in QGIS, on March 3:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/29269

The problem seems to be of a non-simple solution, however in recent days the team was working on it:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/32922

Searching for more questions of the same type, I found that it was probably the problem that caused a question of August 23, 2018, in which I see that you have added a comment:
r.series GRASS algorithm in QGIS 3.2 output no-data image

I am grateful that you have initiated a new question on this subject and I hope that the solution will be found soon.
