Operation

Boost Timer

When using ECO or ECO+ charge modes,
boosting, the charge rate is set to maximum (just like FAST mode), regardless of the amount of available surplus power. This
means that power may be drawn from the mains grid supply during boost times.
There are four editable time slots which can be set to operate for certain days of the week.
Setting the duration to 0h00 will make the boost inactive.

From the main screen, press
2.

Alter the start hour with the

days of the week you want the boost to be active for; each day of the
week and by toggled on/off with
the next day. Pressing
boost time slot and whole line will be highlighted again.

Press to exit the BOOST TIMER screen.
Economy Tariff Boosting
Boosting only when economy rate electricity is available can be achieved in one of three ways:
1.
By setting the boost timer to coincide with the economy tariff times. This option should be used only if the
electricity meter is a dual-rate meter (modern meters usually are).
2.
Boost only at set times if economy rate electric is available.
3.
Automatically boost whenever the economy tariff rate electricity is available, regardless of boost times.
Options 2 and 3 are available only when using the eSense input.
For option 1, the eSense Input in the Advanced menu should be set to
Boost Timer Enable.
With the Boost Timer Enable function set, the BOOST TIMER screen will
include an extra column (see screenshot). The e can be toggled on/off, if e is
present, the boost will activate only when the boost times are valid and the
economy rate tariff is available.
Alternatively the eSense input can be used to active the boost whenever the economy tariff rate electricity is available,
regardless of boost times (option 2). To do this, the eSense Input option in the Advanced menu should be set to Boost.
When using this option, the Boost Timer is not needed.
Boost Time Conflicts
If one or more boost times conflict, the boost will follow the latest time or longest duration.
