Last weekend upgraded CX firmware (3.54) and configured / started DESS. I gave it a few days to get going but I do not see serious charge/discharge activity corresponding to the schedule? First picture is the calculated schedule from yesterday. Second picture is the actual activity from yesterday.
Before enabling DESS I downloaded latest assistants, reran ESS assistant and uploaded to Multiplus
ESS is set to Optimized without BatteryLife
I do not see error messages.
Before this I used a node-red script to control the gridpoint. I notice this parameter is still set to 5000. Does that affect execution? Should it be driven by DESS or do I have to give it a specific value?
Otherwise any idea what could be wrong in my setup?
Thx for any help
Can you add a picture of all 3 graphs? (System overview, prices and the third one)
Also, which values did you configure for battery charge / discharge power and battery costs?
DESS does a sophisticated calculation on when charging from grid to use later is “worth it”.
It also consideres the configures SystemEfficiency figure - so, you should check, what you have for settings/DynamicEss/SystemEfficiency - if the Nodered script eventually changed that as well, it may just be DESS concluding something wrong.
Yesterday I switched DESS off and on again and this morning it seems to work?
Any way, thx for thinking along, I hope my settings are an interesting example for others.
