Good Morning all, and particularly Paul Landregan.
I've had my system running faultlessly since Nov last year.
In the last couple of days, after I've manually finished exporting in Flux at about 6.30pm by pressing the play button, the 9.5kw battery remains idle, and I draw from the grid instead of the battery. It happened a couple of times this week and I managed to get get it restarted by rebooting the inverter in the portal which kicked it back into life.
This morning however, as the PV reached over 200w being kicked back to the grid the battery remained idle. Reboots have had no effect, and even a complete shutdown and start up of the whole system hasn't kicked it into life.
I hadn't been affected by the 3013 firmware update till now.
I have a 5kw gen1 inverter no SD 2227G686 and I wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a look Paul Landregan
Thanks

Me too, cannot get the battery dynamically discharging. It charges fine an looks like I can discharge to the grid, just not to my home. Very irritating and no solution so far...hope giv energy support can help, if it persists I will have to leave octopus flux as I'm getting wince in the evening and through the day.

Don’t forget Paul does have a life outside of here and won’t necessarily see this until tomorrow if then


I know you both haven’t been demanding but just saying!

I used Octo R&D scheduler to force discharge and then go back to Eco after 19:00.
When my battery went to 3013 I could not get Eco to kick back in.
I switched to Home Assistant.
