I really have tried to find out but there is nothing in the manual, or any similar manual online - though many have a similar page to the page below but without this parameter. 

 

I get what "System Charge Power Rate(%)" is, though is there any reason it's bad to put in 100%? Looking looking online most of the time it's 80% or something like that. I'm not sure if this overrides the "AC Charge Power Rate(%)" parameter but I'll just set them as being the same.

 

I get what "Stop AC Charge SOC(%)" means, even I can understand that!

 

But what is "System Charge SOC Limit(%)"? If the page isn't loaded up then it wants a [10,101] range but it doesn't like anything if I put a figure in and press "set". I think I changed this recently, thinking it was the previous field by mistake, so I don't know what it was previously set as and I can't seem to set everything to default either.

 

My inverter is called LXP Hybrid Inverter 6K [LXP-6K Hybrid].
 

Any clues would be appreciated!

As a guess, I’d say system charge power rate is depth of discharge, 100% will depend on what battery is attached, but in any case will shorten its lifespan, 95% is a better option.

 

And system charge SOC limit I would guess is the lower limit at which point it pulls from the grid for a short while to prevent the charge from going too low, again prevent unnecessary damage to the cells.

Thanks, that is interesting.

 

There is another setting elsewhere where the battery is stopped from going below a certain point (6% or thereabouts) and this setting is only in the charge section. At the moment it shows a zero but this is out of range so I guess it's assuming the default, whatever that is.

Could be, in which case I’ve no idea what that setting means, almost seems doubled up doesn’t it?

Thinking about it, it seems like it must refer to the max battery charge when not using AC (ie through solar I guess), but it gives me an error if I try to set it to 95%. Maybe it's effectively doing nothing now but in the summer it lets the battery fully charge.

Just to update this, in case by some miracle someone else comes across the thread with the same question, I couldn't update the setting as the inverter needed a firmware update. It's not something I can do myself but I got good responses from LuxPower and they updated over night.
