Dynamic ESS on Node-Red - Schedule start using 30mins schedules for 3600s

If I use Dynamic ESS on Node-Red (running in parallel with the VRM version which is working fine) the 4 schedules are about 9 hours in the future, using 30mins schedules that have 3600 validity ?

debug example for 19:50 CET+DST (17:50 UTC) resulting in 04:30AM and 05:00AM:

topic: "Schedule 0"

soc: 83

feed_in: 1

duration: 3600

start: 1723602600

restrictions: 0

strategy: 0

_msgid: "e5d60a9ea86e87e3"

_event: "node:8eb59a68b5e00348"


topic: "Schedule 1"

soc: 66

feed_in: 1

duration: 3600

start: 1723604400

restrictions: 0

strategy: 0

_msgid: "e5d60a9ea86e87e3"

_event: "node:c6368abea029ee34"


Flow variables for that same point in time:

SOC:

15: 100

16: 100

17: 100

18: 100

19: 83

20: 66

Time and timezone settings on Venus are correct, Western European Standard Time.

The DESS dashboard shows the correct schedules (and so does the soc forecast response stored in the flow context which I guess I used for the dashboard?)

@Barbara (Victron Energy) I know you are very busy today getting DESS users back online. But if you have a moment, can you give me a hint so I can keep investigating ?

It seems the Dynamic ESS node is simply outputting 4 half-hour start times whereas the output/flow data clearly states half-hour = false and country is set to NL.

Nodered related topics (including the NR DESS variant) should be reported in the modifications section, moved to the new forum. Link available on the announcement topic. Thanks.
