Hi,

 

Seem to have an issue with force discharge. Tried a few times, restarted inverter as well, updated inverter to latest 18kpv, 2 eg4 indoor batteries

All seems to work, ct's are on had to set to reverse, the electrician put that part in as shown on the feeder tap while home, but may have them backwards. Readings are all good though with it reversed. Force charge setting flips on for a second then shuts battery flow down and goes into countdown 5 mins, over and over so I shut forced discharge off for now

Could you share the complete settings list? Based on the issue described and the screenshot provided, it seems that both battery backup mode and forced discharge are enabled simultaneously. These two settings should not be activated together as they have conflicting logic.

This may seem obvious, but if the settings conflict, this should be trapped by the firmware and prevented (or warned.)  I realize on something this complex, it may take a while to iron out all these corner cases.  As long as EG4 (or Lux) continues to work on the firmware to improve it, I am happy.

Following up this was the case, and it worked last night and this morning as expected. Agree maybe a warning if one or the other is checked and one tries to use the second. Thank you for the help much appreciated
