This matrix allows you to program exactly how your battery behaves hour-by-hour throughout the day:
Time Slots (1 to 6): Divide your 24-hour day based on your local reality (e.g., Solar hours, Peak grid pricing hours, or frequent blackouts).
Power (W): Defines the maximum wattage the inverter is allowed to pull from the grid to charge your batteries during that specific time block.
Capacity (SOC % / Volts): The target baseline. The inverter will freely use battery power to run your home until the battery drops to this exact percentage/voltage. Once it hits this floor, it stops using the battery and switches your home over to grid power to protect your reserves.
Grid Charge [Checkmark]: If ticked, you are giving the inverter permission to actively use municipal grid electricity to force-charge your batteries up to your target baseline during this specific time slot.
Summary: How Should You Set It?
If you want maximum backup protection (Frequent outages): Keep your SOC percentages high (e.g., 80% to 100%) during the evening and night hours, and check Grid Charge during times you know the state power is active. This ensures your battery bank is always full and waiting for the next blackout.
If you want maximum self-consumption (Saving money): Drop your daytime and evening SOC targets lower (e.g., 20% to 35%). This forces the inverter to aggressively run your home off the battery bank when the sun goes down, minimizing how much power you pay for from the grid.
