Battery still not ForceDischarging on Scheduler

Attached is a screen shot of the schedule to ForceDiacharge, however the entire system seems to show nil.
I have 3 x AC running so load should reflect this, but it isn't.

I have a request in for the firmware upgrade to 5swc. Currently getting 1-2min updates.

Anyone else have these issues?

My battery is a 41kw system, but I never get it to discharge less that 96% though load is maintained.

If you have had a significant load running for longer than 5 minutes (the data sample interval) and it is not showing that load then there is something wrong with your CT (or meter) placement.

Can you swipe left and post the image of the graph at the bottom of the screen that shows load, solar, battery, grid etc.. - need to know if your system is ever showing load - if it isn’t the battery will never be used.

I will check the CT device in the box in the morning. Think it must be behind the hinged panel, as I have not visually seen it.

You should open up you incoming supply to your property and look for a CT Clamp there.
If you can find it, please take a picture and supply this.
