This time last year I could Pause the battery to deal with the Octopus Energy saving sessions. That option now seems to have been removed? Just watching a YouTube video it seems that it is now only possible for Gen2 inverters?

What has happened and will it come back...

In the meantime I have been on the Inverter web panel and setup a scheduled discharge time which I hope will work, but Eco mode turned back on at one stage so have had to disable it again...

Will now monitor today before saving session at 5:30pm

Does it matter if eco mode is on? Timed export should override the eco behaviour, in a similar way to timed charge ?

M_J Do you mean the play button at the bottom on the home screen ? If you do press the burger button, settings, preferences and then turn quick settings button back on. It does seem to disable itself every now and then

Thanks that was it. Under the Preferences option of the app the Show Quick Settings Button had been switched off. I switched it back on and the Play Button on the home screen came back.

I will see if the pause works OK.

I managed yesterday with a timed discharge for just house load and that seemed to work ok.

Cheers

By setting up a timed discharge it disables Eco mode I think. I need to play a bit more and watch each step to see what it does.

Thanks
