Hi everyone,
New to forum and fox, I'm having an issue with trying to get my batteries to charge off peak times only from grid, I'll try and upload images to show what I've done on app but as soon as I move from default settings it charges all the time from grid and won't discharge until I rest default settings.

the second minsoc is set to 99% that is wrong, both soc inputs should be at 10% if you're not using it in EPS mode for backup power.

I've noticed that "Nelly" also has time period 2 set to 5:1 (05:01) until 1:59 (01:59 the following day).

I had issues when I tried to set period 2 to an earlier time in a given day than period 1. The setup refused to recognise the times. It didn't seem to recognise that time flows, constantly and seemed to fail to recognise that the 00:00 to 01:59 slot followed on directly from 23:59 the previous day.

Also, if the times ARE accepted, wouldn't this (05:01 til 01:59 the following day) tell the inverter to ignore batteries and instead use grid current, all day long?
