Hi, I've just recently moved over to Flux and setup all my schedules yesterday.
For some reason I've woken up today and the battery hasn't charged overnight at all.
Attached a screenshot of my scheduler, can anyone please let me know why it hasn't worked?

If you are on the latest firmware FDPwr is also affecting the charge power (it will eventually have its name changed) - try setting FDPwr to the power you want to charge at in the force charge schedule i.e. 4000 watts;
Also with Force Charge always set your FDSoC to the same value as MaxSoC (again latest firmware is using this).
If that doesn’t work - worth checking your ImportLimitPwr is set correctly as there have been a few reports of changes after firmware updates - you will find that in the inverter Settings, on-grid, Export Control, make sure that ImportLimitPwr is set to your inverter power i.e. H1-5 = 5000 watts, H1-6 = 6000 watts.

Thanks Dave, will check. The app has just gone and lost all my battery settings so will wait until it figures itself out and try FDPwr. Having a discharge named setting affect charging is a poor user experience for sure.
I checked the ImportPwr and Currency and it's set to 3000w and 100a respectively. I do have a h1-5 so do I need to pump it up to 5000? I would of thought it'd still function?

Yes it should be set higher than that at least 5000 watts for an H1-5, or it will throttle the charge power quite heavily.
