DESS and gridpoint setpoint behaviour. Easee EV charger

Hello All.

In my DESS I would like the Victron system ignoring the EV charger.
My approach:

In home assistant I created a dampened sensor value of the power usage of the EV charger. This means this value stays the same regardless small variations in the actual used power. (round(power/50))*50.

Every time this value changes I set the grid setpoint to this value using a modbus command in Home Assistant.

My questions are:

  • It looks like this is not working anymore after latest update? (3.52)
    I’m not really sure but it looked like it was working before. I see the setpoint changed in de ESS settings. However DESS seems to ignore it.
  • Does this mess up the DESS predictions? Because the usage is not ignored for predictions. The gridmeter still registers the usage.

Thanks in advance
