No solar generation during export
Yesterday I joined an Octopus saving session and trialled an export schedule as I'd not tried one before. I've posted in another thread about power drawing from grid after desired SOC achieved but I also noticed that during the scheduled export, my solar generation dropped to 0 only resuming after. Now I'm not quite sure whether it resumed after SOC was achieved or after I reverted to self use because as soon as I noticed I was at desired SOC and was drawing from grid, I switched the schedule off.
My question is why did the solar generation switch off and how do I avoid it doing that in future.

Below are my readings including 1 before and after the schedule was running.

Grid Export(kW) Battery Charge(kW) Total Load(kW) Solar(kW) Battery Discharge(kW) Grid Import(kW) SoC(%)

Do you have a picture of your export schedule?
Or can you make one and post it in full?

Had to learn how to do this. A bit cack handed with the button press combination but here goes.

Re: No solar generation during export
I suspect you are missing it because of FW versions, I have posted on the other thread my KH7 versions are higher.

Sadly I don't think you can have mine loaded as they did get pulled after their release. After a few weeks they did post the version I am running, but I think they pulled again :o
Re: No solar generation during export
So is it normal or was there a known issue that during forced export, solar generation stops.
