That’s green and pink. Oh wait Last of us episode 3…
We have tried this, it will export but won't charge the battery, and then at night it will actually drain the battery to export to grid.
If I don't come right I'll do that, but I think I might just have to get an electrician in to set it up properly.Maybe start a new thread an post pics of the DB side, inverter side, the config screens and what your expectations are for essentials, non essentials, export etc. Otherwise we might help you on specific things you are asking but its not getting you to the correct overall setup.
If battery is already at 100% (as per your TOU settings) then it can't charge any more.We have tried this, it will export but won't charge the battery, and then at night it will actually drain the battery to export to grid.

Yep, but you have load shedding. You cannot export during load shedding.OK this is what it looks like now. Its using a lot currently, but not exporting anything. I'll take another picture tomorrow afternoon when there's sun if you want? View attachment 1485863
Broken again this morning.I see the graphs are updating, but the data is 90min behind. At least I can see 1 1/2hrs after my domestic flatlines the batteries before the sun starts working its magic :-/
