PV energy supply priority setting:

 1

st

 Load, 2

nd

 Battery   

PV will provide power to the load first and then charge battery. Feed-in to the grid is 
not allowed in this mode. The grid relay is connected in Inverter mode. As a result, 
the  transfer  time  from  inverter  mode  to  battery  mode  will  be  less  than  15ms

Overload faults are avoided as grid can supply load when the load is above 3KW.  
 

Battery charging source:  

1.

 

PV or Grid: If there is remaining PV power after supporting the loads, it will 
charge battery first. Only if PV power is not available, will grid charge battery. 
(Default)  

2.

 

PV only: Only PV is allowed to charge battery.   

3.

 

None: Neither PV nor grid is allowed to charge the battery.

PV power will provide power to the load first. If power is not sufficient, battery 
power will provide power to the load. When battery power is running out or 
not available, grid will back up the load.

NOTE:

 This option will become ineffective during AC charging time and the priority
