App settings - overriding drawing from the battery; using only the solar/grid

Please see the attached photo - assuming it uploads.

My electricity provider (Synergy, WA) has a very cheap midday tariff. I would like to have the option of being able to set my app so that when charging the car during the middle of the day the power is drawn solely from the solar cells and the grid; not from the battery.

The reason for this is that when doing a big charge, the battery can get fully drained, and then when the cheap tariff period ends I would enter the high tariff period (after 3pm, when the tariff is at the max) and the solar charging is diminishing.

I cannot find a way of doing this. Is there one??

Thanks …

Hi @andrew

Sorry to bother you. I received no replies to my post above, and so I assume that that which I am looking to do is not possible. Before I give up (or see if there is some other solution, possibly direct through the Fronius app), would you be so kind as to confirm my assumption - i.e. that there is no setting in the app which will override depleting the battery and draw direct from the grid.

Thanks, regards, Peter.

Hi @Peter . Thanks for your post.

Unfortunatly there is no way for Charge HQ to prevent your home battery discharging into your EV. Doing so would require changing the behaviour of the battery, and Charge HQ does not directly control home batteries.

The only workaround is if your home battery provides controls to prevent it from discharging during certain times.

Hi @jay, thanks for that. Not the answer I was looking for, but at least I understand better now. Much appreciated.
