Float/Absorption signal on Venus GX

Hi,

I want to use the float/absorption signal to control an external device (geyser) Js this signal available on one of the Venus GX external terminals?

I am making useof the extra power after the batteries arefully charged, hence "float" despite some kWh would still be available.

Any other way to pick up that signal.

Thanks a lot

Walter

I dont think that is available in the relay assistant directly but you 'may' be able to switch a relay based on a combination charge current and inverter load or SOC. Th relay assistant is the place to look if you are using basic functionality.

Personally I would install Large OS with Node Red enabled and then do what ever you need wit that. Control of the relays and litterally all information the GX has will then be available to you to do what you want, and likely a better more newanced version of it, in a flow.

I think its a learning curve worth following.
