PV Inverter Support Assistant

In description of this assistant it says when mains is connected on input "This Assistant will be idle when the Multi or Quattro is connected to mains " What exactly is Idle ? - Does mains pass-through ? Does charging follow the settings as per VeConfig3 ? More clarification required

This means that it won't do anything until there is no grid, the assistant cannot change the frequency when it has AC-input connected, because it has to follow the frequency of the AC-input.

This is the assistants that I use on my Grid tie connected inverter, (connected to AC1 out)

my inverter is a multiplus 48/5000

I then use Generator autostart in my CCGX/ venus GX to make AUX1 in the inverter to go hi or low,

Thus this opens the Main AC1 in relay and thus allows the Multi/Quattro to be able to adjust the frequency and thus shut down my grid Tie inverter before the Batteries are 100% full and thus stop export to the Grid.

I use the AC current sensor so that a tile appears on my ccgx/venus gx so I can see the solar current
