Whilst the weather has been rubbish I have a force charge window set for 3-4pm before the octopus peak rate for grid use. Now the weather is getting better and the days are a little longer this setting is stopping my generation unless I manually switch it off. Is there a way to set the mode scheduler to force charge if the battery soc is below a minimum level e.g 60% but not force charge if it’s nearly full e.g 90%+?

I’ve tried adjusting the min and max SOC but haven’t had any success.
Thanks

No sadly not.

Depending on your inverter model, there have been a few firmware updates and now it doesn’t disable the solar when force charging (as long as you don’t set a maxsoc less than 100%)

If you don’t need scheduler, you can set an old charge period and that doesn’t disable generation whilst it is charging.

Thanks. Old fashioned charging schedule does the trick
