Tariff module
From PhotoVoltaic Logger new generation
Tariffs are costs/earnings depending on weekdays and/or day times.
If you assign a tariff to a channel, it will overwrite the cost attribute.
If you don't need tariff, e.g. for constant compensations for electricity fed into the grid, you should use the cost attribute!
Overview
A tariff is defined by time slices, when the settings start and is valid without date limit.
If a cost changes e.g. for next year, create a new time slice with the new starting date.
You will see all your tariffs and the starting dates:
Master data

A time slice for a tariff is defined by
- Starting date
- Fix cost per day, e.g. a basic fee for imports (optional)
- Time depended data
- Starting time
- Weekday

Simple
Simple example is a fix import rate, only changes each year, so the cost is for each weekday and any time the same.
Advanced
Here we have a tariff with high-rate and low-rate tariff times.
you are free to maintain this in 2 ways, the result will be the same.
