Timed Battery Discharge Export Issue

Hi all,

I have recently tried to set my Battery Dicharge to 'Home Demand' from 07:00 - 00:01 however as soon as i switch to this setting from 'Dynamic' the system immediately sends my stored power to my Iboost device and then begins discharging the battery to grid.

I have checked the settings from the give energy cloud web browser and have checked that 'Timed Export' is disabled so i am a bit puzzled as to why this is happening. As soon as i put the settings back to dynamic it stops exporting.

Has anyone else had this issue or have i missed something simple?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Andy

What kit, and what are you trying to achieve.
I am Gen1 Hy5.0 and 9.5kWhr battery on Eco7.

Use the portal and not the app.
If you are charging from midnight to 07:00 set timed charge with those times.
Turn timed discharge and timed export off.
Turn Eco on.
That will charge battery offpeak and then minimise grid import until midnight.

If you want better control in order of functionality, go Octo R&D scheduler, then WonderWatt and then HomeAssistant
