Hi, I'm sorry if this is a newbie question. I can change the storage control mode and issue remote commands like charge or discharge though the overview page and thats great, thank you for doing this work. How do I find those entities (?) to be able to access them in a trigger ? I've looked through all the trigger options and I cant find the right 'action' for my 23:30 'trigger' e.g. change storage remote command mode to "charge from PV and AC" Any advice or pointers please ?

Also does anyone know for certain if setting the storage control mode to "remote control" overrides any time of use policies that have been set up by solaredge or the installer ? They've set one up on my system to charge from midnight to 2am but I want to completely override that and control it all myself. I think it does but don't want to break stuff and create a clash. |

My installer lets me contact them to ask them to put a charge profile into the solaredge inverter. But that’s a pain in the rear by design, and I don’t want to. Id rather be in control, as I can see the next days forecast and decide if I want to charge or not.Might be worth seeing if your installer can help, but I enjoy the control. Seth, didn’t realise the device had a service, I had been controlling the entities directly.Sent from my iPhoneOn 2 Dec 2022, at 17:53, paulorrockgit ***@***.***> wrote:

Hi all, Apologies if i'm just being blind, but i'm looking to get some clarity on what the AC Charge Policy settings do in the power control options: there doesn't seem to be any mention of these in the documentation. TIA |

Hi Guys, So for ages now I keep getting continuous "unavailable" of sensors. There doesnt seem to be a regular time when it does it, from this screenshot alone you can see its ranges from 4 mins to 49 mins. What am i doing wrong? My polling frequancy is 30 seconds and my interver delay 3 seconds. i've played about a bit with these but doesnt seem to help. TIA |

Hi, I am trying to use the power control to limit solar production during negative feed in tariffs. When I change the active power limit, it works for about 10 seconds then resets itself to 100%. Same thing happens when I change storage control modes. Suspect the Solaredge cloud is overriding my commands? I contacted my installer to ask if I could control locally. They contacted Solaredge support who said they do not support this function ? Any ideas as to how I can get this sorted ? |

I am using power control settings to switch off battery usage when I charge my EV. Unfortunately from time to time I cannot switch back to Max Self Consumption. Combination is SE 7K RWS with BYD. |

My setup consists of only a single simple SE5K, no power meter nor battery. I have been playing with the "active power limit" and "commit power settings". Most likely due to delays in activating the 0% and 100% state I don't really understand what is actually the correct steps to take. Should it be sufficient to change "active power limit" to 0% or 100% using an automation, or do I also need to activated "commit power settings" each time? |

This discussion is for general stuff about power control related functions: storage (battery) control and site limits.
You may also want to read issues #136 and #137 which were part of the development process.
