Multiplus, EVCS, No solar.

Just making sure it'll do what I hope it will before committing.

Want to get a MultiPlus-II 48/5000, batteries & a EVCS. (may get more MP2 later)
Have the MultiPlus charge the batteries during off peak tariff, supply house/load during other (until battery low).
EVCS charge car at up to 32A during off peak, and from MultiPlus during other periods at <=16A.

I can't have solar at my house at this time.
I don't mind if system pulls from grid during peak times but I just want to limit usage during those periods as much as possible.

Tariff: Ergon 12c.

DESS can take care of the system to get the best energy price. But the EVCS is not yet controlled by DESS

Can the evcs have a schedule so it's limited during peaks?

My tariff is time of use, fixed times.

Thank you, is it able to reduce and increase output depending on the inverter load?
