@trebor12345 I think @toodles has explained, by exaggerating the cost differential it forces it to behave exactly as you wish. It shouldn’t be necessary to do so, but it is. 

There is a bit of trial and error involved. For example if you want to make it charge from grid at a particular time, make the cost of import near zero or if you want to force discharge make the export price 1 million. 
it sounds mad, but it works.

 

( sorry to complicate matters but the other, more elegant way to do it is to use a supervisory app, I used to use one called Netzero. It used to be free, but they started charging for it. So being a tight wad I stopped using it. But that gives you much better control than the Tesla app. But you need to tie it to the PW for it to work and need the QR code from inside the battery enclosure, if I remember correctly.)
