Setting the heating mode for the battery
The inverter features a heating mode for "Tesla Daily Powerwall" batteries from Tesla Energy. The heating mode helps conserve the battery at low temperatures. This way, you can increase the service life of the battery. The heating mode is normally set such that the battery is automatically if temperatures are too low and enough charging power is available. The heating energy is covered by excess PV power.
The heating mode should always be activated if the battery is installed on a location where temperatures below -10°C are expected and, in this case, has to be charged immediately when excess PV power is available. The heating energy will be drawn from the utility grid.
The heating mode for the battery can be deactivated if the battery is installed on a location where the temperature does not fall below 10°C.
To modify the default setting of the heating mode for the battery, proceed as described below.
The basic procedure for changing operating parameters is explained in another section ( > Changing Operating Parameters).
Procedure:
- Select the parameter group Battery > Operation > Battery.
- To activate the heating mode, set the parameter Heating mode to On.
- To set the automatic heating mode, set the parameter Heating mode to Automatic.
- To deactivate the heating mode, set the parameter Heating mode to Off.
