No, this is always the case! The Taycan can NOT charge if the EVSE sets an overload protection limit. The optimized vs. preferred charge time settings do not having anything to do with this. They only have an effect on timer settings on when the Taycan will have an additional charging demand...

This is possible as I explained in my previous post

If the EVSE limits the maximum charging power or doesn’t allow charging, the Taycan will do that. Having a profile with minSoC set to 85% will cause the Taycan to always have a charging demand until the SOC reached 85% like any other EV does with an SoC limit set. But if the EVSE limits...

Resetting the PCM will remove the Plug & Charge Token from the vehicle allowing a new one to be installed. To install a new token you might need to plug the Taycan into a Plug & Charge compatible DC station and authenticate once with your Porsche charging card. That should then trigger the...

The "Direct Charging" button is for AC only and it means that the car should charge until it is unplugged or the battery is full, ignoring all active profiles and timers. It is the same behavior as having all profiles and timers disabled or removed.

I did not say or mean that the Taycan supports bi-direction charging or that public chargers will. What I meant is that EVs that will support bi-directional charging (via CCS or Type 2) will have to implement ISO15118 as a basis. But we are talking in circles. In hindsight everything can be...

They do have a UX team, and that was the best they came up with at that time. Most EVs out there, didn't even have the possibilities to use timers (with or without a HEMS) for charging or climating. And as they were the first to adopt ISO15118-2 on AC charging and most other vendors didn't...

That is something Tibber has to add. The Online API does provide the current SoC. Also they should provide documentation on how charging for their supported EVs should be setup to use their smart charging feature. Porsche can't help you with that.

Ok, that is a completely different API and communication protocol compared to what the Taycan uses with a PMCC and the Porsche HEMS. Those can not be compared at all. I assume it can enable/disable "Direct Charging". To use that you need to use a profile and set the SoC target to the minimum...

@Raphie I know a lot of products are called HEMS with some kind of similar features but also with a widely different set of capabilities and protocols that are being supported. So when someone uses a Porsche HEMS and you are using a Tibber HEMS, they work completely different and provide a...

One big problem is the wild differences in the available home charging setups being out there. What Porsche did is design the experience specifically/mostly on the basis of their new technology, being based on ISO15118-2 and EEBUS which includes their PMCC/PWCC and their HEMS. They started...

The profile settings SoC is defined as the minimum SoC that should be reached as quickly as possible no matter the costs. The reasoning is that you will have a minimum range e.g. for emergency reasons. Hence it does not makes sense for a compatible HEMS to interfere here. In this concept using...

Guys, please, you are mixing up things a bit. Let me explain: - The Taycan supports communication either via ISO15118-2 or via J1772/IEC61851 to the wallbox - The Porsche Mobile Charger Connect supports ISO15118-2 to the car and EEBUS to a compatible HEMS - The Porsche HEMS supports EEBUS to a...

This is not correct. Timers are also used and useful in combination with a HEMS. E.g. it allows to charge with the lowest cost if you have different tariffs at different times, eg day and night tariffs or different tariffs with different power levels drawn from the grid

Charging the battery over 85% once in a while does not stress the battery. Leaving it above that level for some time isn’t ideal and shouldn’t be done often. That’s it. Porsche was very very conservative with the battery and its 10kWh buffer. So 0% is never really empty and 100% is never really...

@hifi239 There is no setting to limit DC charging. These settings are for AC charging only.

The PMCC is the currently only wallbox that takes advantage of all the new tech the Taycan has implemented and the other vendors still haven't catched up yet. In Germany lots of Wallboxes provide a 1P/3P phase switching, as 3 phase charging requires minimum power of 4,1kW (metric ,) because...

There is an API that the web interface uses, but it is rather limited. E.g. you can't stop the charging process. To control charging, you need to communicate via the EEBUS protocol with the charger as the Porsche HEMS does. The open source project https://evcc.io/ does that, I implemented the...

No, it should be on. do not turn it off. If it is on, then your OBC might have an issue causing this not to work.

The last possibility why this is not working is checking this: Log into the PMCC web interface with the tech user (!!) and check the under the menu „connections“ if the „PLC connection to the EV“ is turned on You do not need to „pair“ the vehicle with the PMCC to get solar charging working.
