[SUGGESTION] Being able to switch to TOU mode and keep EPS mode.

Hello,

I was wondering if it would be possible to enable an operating mode on the Smart Home Panel 2 while keeping EPS mode active. Currently, this isn’t supported—activating any operating mode prompts a warning that EPS mode will be disabled.

If that’s technically not feasible, I’m curious if there could be a workaround using Scheduled Tasks mode, where EPS mode is automatically re-enabled during periods when the battery is charging from the grid (and not actively supplying power to the house).

Let me explain my current setup:

I’ve configured a scheduled task that powers my home using solar energy during the day (from 10:30 AM to 5:00 PM), then switches back to grid power afterward. The problem is that this setup disables EPS mode, so I have to manually switch it back on every evening after 5:00 PM—and then remember to disable EPS and re-enable the scheduled task the next morning before 10:30 AM. This daily manual switching is tedious and error-prone.

While I understand that EPS mode isn’t necessary when running on battery power, it still makes sense to have it enabled while the system is connected to the grid if an operating mode like Scheduled Tasks is active. That way, the home remains protected from outages during non-solar hours without requiring manual intervention.

Would love to hear your thoughts on whether this could be improved or automated in future updates.
