Force charge not working
We have had a fully functioning system - PV/fox ess/EV/Octopus for some time.
The only change is a new EV but still charged through previous Zappi.
Last 2 nights despite the app working as normal there has been no charge.
All devices are on line. There has been no router change, power cuts etc
The car charge and force charge do not over lap. The force charge does not cross the midnight dark spot.
We have done a forced charge test this morning. The mobile app shows “forced charge” on the home page but there is no effect on electricity flow/battery.
Any ideas? Thanks.
(Please keep responses simple - very much amateurs in this world!)
Re: Force charge not working
If you are using the FoxCloud2.0 App, can you take a screenshot of the following if possible;

1. Home screen
2. Work Mode, show your schedule
3. Daily Production
4. Statistics (bottom of Daily Production page)

Thank you, hopefully these are what you want to look at.

Re: Force charge not working
Your mode scheduler looks a lot more basic than mine, just wondering if there is any firmware upgrade available?
On your last picture, if you click on the Inverter SN, there you should be able to see what is loaded currently.

If there is an update, and you can apply it, I recommend you do so. Grab screenshots before/after for own records of course.

Nothing happens when I click inverter SN. Is there a different way to check this?

Re: Force charge not working
I’ve checked all the devices in the mobile app. None show they need updates. That would have been far too easy!
Re: Force charge not working
Your picture says 1,000 words (firmware is current)

H1 (legacy) if I am not mistaken...

Two final suggestions, at some point, restart the system https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBTtKaX-k14
and if the App still won't charge it, then you should be able to set a charge up on the inverter screen directly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDY3DllWakQ

Great. I’ll have a go - but probably tomorrow. Thanks for your suggestions.
