THE AC INPUT CAPACITY SCHEDULE
is a function used in the On Grid (or SGB)
configuration. Four schedules can be enabled or disabled for which the AC
Input Capacity will be reduced by the percentage set. This can be used in times
of high electricity prices or peak punitive tariff times to limit the draw from the
grid, reducing costs, and drawing any extra required from the battery bank. Any
excess solar is still exported to the full extent possible.
Care must be taken to ensure that there will be enough capacity in the battery
bank to support the load during these times. If the battery bank reaches the Low
SoC Shutdown or Low Battery Voltage levels, this setting will be bypassed and all
power will be supplied from the grid until such time that the battery is able to be
recharged.
THE AC INPUT CHARGER LOCKOUT SCHEDULE
is a function used in the On
Grid (or SGB) configuration. Four schedules can be enabled or disabled for
which grid charging of the battery bank will be disabled. This can be used to
only allow grid charging of the battery bank during times of low electricity prices
or off peak tariff times. This has no effect on the renewable input charging or
exporting the excess to the grid.
Sufficient time must be allowed in the schedules to be certain that the battery
bank can be recharged appropriately in the time given.
