I couldn't say for sure. It does depend on firmware versions for KH, if you can access these little extra settings.
Odds are yes (or it was introduced before in 1.7x/1.5x version)

Once we (finally) get the release notes, it might become apparent
https://fox-ess.tech/firmware-release-notes/

I check that site daily, but nothing since 23/03/2026

I've now upgraded, and it just arrived in 1.78/1.59 for me - but then I missed out on a few upgrades in between.

Without the notes we will never know for sure when it was added, but hopefully now it will work perfectly when you test it.

Best of luck to you too.

Thanks.
I hope that's the last for a while.
My router runs off an EPS circuit. Some upgrades fully restart the inverter at one point, killing the EPS for a while.
This one did, so I'm left with a screen showing an incomplete upgrade and a Connection Lost warning. Then it's fingers crossed for when the router restarts!

Mine did the same but restarted fine.

If I remember next time I'll move the router to a non-EPS fed socket before upgrade (and hope we don't have a power cut!).

I've checked out 1.78/1.59 on forced charge and forced discharge. Both seemed to switch to doing what I wanted after target SoC was reached.

Same here, after charging to 100% held at backup through the off peak period.

Good to hear it worked as intended for you all.
