What service in Apps.yaml is called by "Hold for Car" in Predbat status

[Javert1969]

I am working on perfecting Alpha ESS Modbus integration.

Can you tell me what services in the Apps.yaml file is called when the Predbat status reads "Hold for Car" and "Charging, Hold for Car". Especially the first one because in my testing this does not seem to be working and I am wondering if I am missing a separate status in apps.yaml that needs to be configured?

That's a good question!

There isn't an explicit hold for car service. https://springfall2008.github.io/batpred/inverter-setup/#i-want-to-add-an-unsupported-inverter-to-predbat

I don't have an EV so can't verify, but with those states, Predbat is setting the battery to stop discharging so I would expect it is setting freeze charge mode, or if that service isn't defined it is calling start charge with a charge rate of zero. By setting charge mode Predbat expects the battery to not be discharging.

If you confirm what services are called I can update the documentation to make it clearer

I'll need to confirm after a proper test, but based on the time stamps of certain state changes, I suspect you are right that it's calling freeze charge mode.
