Hi,
In order to export energy to grid I am trying to set negative AcPowerSetPoint for an ESS system using d-bus script. Positive values always works, like in the example below:
#dbus -y com.victronenergy.settings /Settings/CGwacs/AcPowerSetPoint SetValue 50
but
#dbus -y com.victronenergy.settings /Settings/CGwacs/AcPowerSetPoint SetValue -50
return: dbus: error: no such option: -50
Thanks,
Mihai
Hi Mihai. I am trying to use my MultiPlus-II in Mode 3 as well. I am trying to use a Python script (see here) but it seems I am missing some small thing to make it work.
Now, I tried also your command from above:
dbus -y com.victronenergy.settings /Settings/CGwacs/AcPowerSetPoint SetValue %-200
With dbus-spy, I see that value under
com.victronenergy.settings/Settings/CGwacs/AcPowerSetPoint
and
com.victronenergy.hub4/AcPowerSetPoint
But, my MultiPlus-II stays in "Passthru" and no power is taken from the battery.
What else do I need to actually feed power from the battery to the grid?
I already have the following set:
Hi, Try %-50
Thank you so much!
