Gazzagreen Yep - as the delta will be calculated between what your regular use is in that time slot versus what it will be now.

And because you can export, this is effectively your 'saving'.

    Ohhh, I better set the export timer then :)

    Hmmm, export didn't trigger by itself so I had to set it off manual via the app.
    Could be the forcast setting of "0"?

      We'll keep an eye on it for when it starts to get warmer. ATM it doesn't matter, I am just exporting because of the saving session.

      Logs did say...

      But at 17:10 it wasn't exporting.

      Perhaps set it up too late?

        Gazzagreen Instructions were successfully sent.

        Can you show the Giv logs? Did another cmd get sent after that once it was discharging?

          I did accidentally put charge on instead of export manually when thumbling with the mobile LOL

          Gazzagreen Looks like on your inverter we may need to explicitly set Eco mode to off as well, judging from the Giv app's instructions for Discharge...

            Hello,
            Same as @Gazzagreen here too. I set up the export in good time and was monitoring what my setup was doing using the excellent " Inverter " app from bbcbasic.co.uk which I have running permanently on an old iPad that I keep on the sideboard. I gave it a few minutes after 18:00 to see if it would kick in, then I set it up to start at 18:10 using the Givenergy cloud.

              KevinD Right, but unlike with @Gazzagreen - it doesn't look like we sent any discharge instruction. Was the SOC value condition met? And how many mins in advance did you set it up? Was it 1 min away, or say 5?

              Export function runs every 5 mins, could be that because you set it up so close to it being ran, it was missed out.

              We'll look through some logs too. Update: can't find a discharge instruction, so that sort of confirms this is a due to the interval.

              We will have a look and see if we can bring that interval for export checks down a bit. Regular charging scheduler checks every 4 mins by the way.


                My battery percentage was about 96% due to being out a great part of the day, coupled with an unexpectedly bright day for Solar.
