Disabled Export still active?

Although tricky to explain....
I have moved to Octopus Agile (as they refuse to sync their tariffs to my Economy7) and have set up the following
ECO = ON
Timed battery charge between 1am and 6am when the rates are low
Timed battery discharge between 2pm and 7pm when Agile rates are high
This seems to work well. However in my experimentation I set up a Timed Export for 16:30-19:00 which I think I will use in a holiday mode when there's no discharge happening. However although this profile is disabled it still seems to kick in at 16:30. I can try to delete the inactive profile but should this actually work by just being disabled?
Thanks for your help!

That "timed Export" disable switch is off. If you want to set it to disable at a given time, then turn it on. Or else delete the set times.

It seems to be a feature of some firmwares that if you have configured an export slot with a min SoC, it will honour that limit even if the enable export flag is turned off. Best to set the limit to 4% until you need to do an export. (And possibility consider whether you actually want to configure a min - doesn't really do what most people want.)
