SAJ BATTERY SCHEDULING

This guide applies to:

• SAJ hybrid inverters (e.g. Suntrio / H2 / HS2 series depending on installation)
• Paired with compatible Saj high-voltage or low-voltage batteries
• Using the Saj monitoring app (eSolar / Saj Cloud) or web portal

Ensure:

• Your inverter is online and communicating
• You have owner-level login access
• Your battery shows available capacity
• The inverter is not in fault mode

• Open the Saj monitoring app
• Select your inverter
• Go to Settings
• Navigate to Work Mode / Energy Mode
• Select Time of Use (TOU)

Why TOU?

TOU mode allows you to schedule specific charge and discharge periods.
If your inverter is set to Self-Use mode, it will prioritise home consumption and may not export during the Battery Happy Hour window.

In TOU mode, locate the Discharge Schedule section.

Add a new time period:

• Start: 17:30
• End: 19:30

Set this period to Discharge.

Save settings.

This instructs the battery to discharge during the Happy Hour window.

To ensure available energy:

• Navigate to Battery Settings
• Locate Minimum SOC
• Set to 10–20% (typical recommendation)

If Min SOC is set too high (e.g. 40–50%), your battery may stop discharging early and miss part of the 5:30–7:30pm window.

Even if your battery discharges, export may be blocked if:

• Export Control is disabled
• Export limit is set to 0 kW
• DNSP export cap is lower than inverter output
• Installer has locked export permissions

Check:

• Go to Advanced Settings
• Confirm Export Control = Enabled
• Confirm export limit matches your DNSP approval (commonly 5 kW single phase, varies by region)

If these settings are locked, contact your installer.

Between 5:30pm–7:30pm:

Check the app dashboard and look for:

• Battery discharging
• Grid export shown as negative grid consumption (or export flow to grid)
• Export power greater than 0 kW

If battery is discharging but grid export is 0:

• Your home load is absorbing all energy
• Or export is restricted
