Too early cutoff when load is low

During years we optimized pwr consumption of our home, idle mode at night is around 250W-350W ish. Last night was the first our new Multigrid / LG RESU 6.5 combo was running the home by battery. Nice feeling btw.
However although minimum SOC is set to 20% system switched back from inverter to grid at 49% SOC.
My first guess - this is related to the cutoff voltage which is relatively high for small loads. If so how can I change this behavior?

Hi, Lower the low voltage cutoff values.

Txs for confirming, to better understand sensitivity of parameters I'll try now

0.005 C= 50.80 V

0.25 C= 49.90 V

0.7 C= 49.20 V

2 C= 48.00 V

With a BMS controlled system I normally use the same value as inverter low voltage shutdown (and that at minimum voltage the battery or inverter can handle)

In these lithium systems the bms usually knows best. this setting I see as Lead-Acid battery values.

(please consider I didn't actually study the LG-Resu batteries, so if the manual says a different setting is needed please do that)
