Battery Reserve Capacity setting changing by itself?

Hi.

First post :-)

We have the following system:
  • Inverter 1: H1-E3.7-G2 with the latest firmware (main roof)
  • Inverter 2: S2000-G2 (garage roof)
  • Batteries: 4 x ECS2900
  • PV: 14 x 440 panels
I'm running the FoxCloud 2.0 app to monitor everything.

When I go into the 'Quick Settings' for the main inverter, every now and then, the Battery Reserve Capacity is different from the last setting I made...
I keep changing it back to my chosen figure - 15% - but the other day I observed that it was 20%. Changed it back to 15%. Today it's set to 10%!

Is there some other factor that can dynamically change the battery reserve capacity that I'm unaware of?

Cheers
Colin

Hi, if you are using schedules that can dynamically change the minsoc setting - i.e. if you set a schedule with minsoc set to 15% it will remember that setting even after the schedule has run or been deleted. With schedules the best advice is to always set the minsoc exactly as you want it to be left i.e. 10%
