Multiplus Assistants

Hi All

I wondered if there are anyone out there who knows about setting up MPII Assistants in VE Config.

Setup: MPII, CerboGX, Lifepo4 batteries.

Would anyone know how I set up assistants to Turn the Charger on at a certain time and then to turn if off after a few hours - e.g. Inverter ON at 8.30pm and Off at 1.30am?

Many thanks

Trung

Not an assistant pro at all, but it sounds like you need ESS with scheduled charging:

ESS is capable of much more, so I suspect the hard part will be figuring out how to ignore everything you don't need. :)

Hope it works out. My system is off-grid, so I can't use ESS, but I'd be interested in a follow-up if you're successful.
