EV charger discharges battery

I have a Victron EV charger connected to AC out of a Multiplus II 48/5000 and a 4.8 kWh pylontech battery. Can the system be programmed to charge the car at night from the grid without emptying the pylontech battery?

For now, only if you install the EVCS on the AC IN and program the ESS system not to provide power on AC IN
Or, if you like programming, it is possible to create a node red script
Later, it will be possible

Ok thanks, I didn't know about red node, it's interesting. Can it be configured from the menus later on?
