Battery Force Time Charge Error
Hi, I have just had my solar system and Fox Battrry/Inverter system installed.

I have been shown the app and explained that I want to charge my battery’s from the grid only between 00:00 hours and 05:00 hours to benefit from my cheaper night rates. I’ve tried to set this on the app through clicking ‘Battery’ then setting the ‘Force Time Charge’ and clicking ‘Charge from Grid enabled’ and then finally ‘Submit’.

At this point an error comes up stating ‘Parameters do not meet expectations. Please reenter.’ Then it does not save my timings.

Is this a software issue? How do I go about fixing it please?

Thank you :)!

Hi Will,

Thanks for the video, I did watch it and it did help.

I’m trying to now set my system up to work as yours does. I currently have cheap electric between 0000-0500hrs at 7p/kwh10kwh battery that I want to fill during these hours and then try and run off these batteries during the day and export any additional generated power from solar panels as this pays 15p/kWh. Are you free someone to help me set this up ? Cheers again, Louis.
