The default control modes are requested during the initial setup. You can change them later under the "Settings" menu.

external signals
If external control signals (Yuso, Edmij, Frank Energie, ...) are active, the external control signal has priority and the default control modes will be used as fallback.
Don't control: No active control. (Note that this can be overwritten by an external signal).
Self-consumption optimalization: Charging when there is excess solar power, and discharging when energy is taken from the grid.
Cost optimalization: Charge with the least expensive possible energy, and cover consumption at the most expensive times. You can optionally allow energy trading.
Peak shaving only: Discharge at times of peak consumption from the grid, and charge at off-peak times. You can set your own threshold values for this.
Exclusive control through external API: Only charge and discharge according to external control signals.
Don't control: No active control. (Note that this can be overwritten by an external signal).
Cost optimalization: PV production is turned off at negative purchase prices (you are then paid to consume), and limited to your energy consumption at negative sales prices (you pay to inject your surplus). At other times, PV production is limited to allowable feed-in power.
Feed in restriction till allowed grid export power: Limit PV production to the allowed grid export power.
Exclusive control via external API: Only limit PV production according to external control signals.
Minimum charging current
Most electric vehicles always require a minimum charging current of 6A. So possibly charging is not reduced to zero when ideally it should be.
Don't control: No active control. (Note that this can be overwritten by an external signal).
Self-consumption optimalization: Charging when there is excess solar power.
Cost optimalization: Charge with the least expensive possible energy.
Peak shaving only: Limit charging to the maximum allowed grid import power.
