Home Assistant HACS integration help?

Hi all,
Newby DIY’er here. I’ve recently installed an MP II 5kva 230v system with DIY batteries (JK-BMS) and a cerbo GX using ESS.
Running Home Assistant and the HACS Victron integration.
The screenshot below is the ‘setting’ device in the integration. Does anyone have a entity description for each of the controls.
I can see their description, but after many hours of trial end a few errors, I could do with a more descriptive explanation on these controls, and how to best use them… Thanks.

Have you had a look on their community?

They seem to have given the functionality interesting names that don’t quite align but are close enough to ESS terms to figure out, but are truncated on that screenshot.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for this.
I’ve had a look but still can’t find a decent explanation of the various controls. They seem to do what I’d expect them to do. Repeatable settings often result in unexpected outcomes. for example, currently I can’t get the inverter to feed in (Export)…

Open two sessions, one to HA, one to the remote console ESS settings.
And see what HA is changing.
If you can’t get it to export natively with the GX then there is a bigger issue.
If it works with the GX, you can see what HA is disabling.

I see there is a prevent feedback button that is on in that screenshot.
