Battery did not charge over night

Hi, for some reason my batteries did not charge as per schedule setting. The previous night worked fine but last night the batteries just kept discharging un...

Hi again that's 2 nights in a row that schedule has failed. Broadband has been stable. I have had to manually charge with shine phone app which is working fine so inverter is connected to WiFi OK.
What can be causing this?

Hi again, I'm still getting issues of charge failures over night. I seem to get 1 or 2 nights where it charges and then the next night a failure and this keeps recurring. My broadband seems to be stable now and most nights I am up watching to see if everything OK.
Last night WW failed to charge again so I decided this time rather than using growatt app to start charge I would write another WW schedule and that worked perfectly.
Can you shed some light on this as I will not be able to keep staying up to check soon.
Kind regards
Ty

elliptical-visit This does seem to be purely a Growatt API error that indicates the instruction wasn't set successfully, see our logs.

I wonder if we put a separate retry in after say 5-10 mins. Looks like your 00:35 custom charge schedule did work.

Hi, it's like the growatt inverter has gone to sleep and by the time it's awake its too late so yes a seperste retry might be good.
Also I'm not sure if it's this but during the day I sometimes refresh the WW home page but I didn't do it yesterday and maybe not on the other failure days so again does this wake something up.
I would like to go back to the smart charge schedule but I found the predicted solar was way off with this very grey weather we have been having so thats why i decided to charge 100% at night for the time being.
OK, so do I need to do anything my end?

elliptical-visit The refresh of WW is not necessary and has no bearing on this.

Nothing to do at your end for now, we'll put a delayed retry in for this specific error.

Hi again,
well we had 8 successful overnight charges but tonight failed again for some reason.

elliptical-visit Looks like last night was fine?

elliptical-visit

Hi, yes but the 00:30 failed that's why I had to do another schedule.

elliptical-visit Ah yes, sorry, missed that, usual Growatt response error (for you) by the looks of things:

Wish Growatt could shed more light on what this means?

elliptical-visit

Yes it's getting annoying, is there a firmware or software update maybe that needs installing?
It's been fine for months and months and now it's decided to play up.
I'm only up cos I've had bowel surgery and still having frequent visits to the toilet so off work at the moment but hope to go back in new year, then I will need my beauty sleep! Lol

elliptical-visit Would be worth to see if Growatt knows what this error message means that comes back from their web API.

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Hi, just to keep you in the loop, Growatt think same as you that it's an Internet disconnection issue and for me to unplug and replug the WiFi dongle which I did yesterday so we will see if that has helped in due course.
I'm not convinced but time will tell.

Hi again, it looks like the issue still persists, the 00:30 schedule failed.
I will let growatt know and see what they say this time.
