I now have a small java program that fetches the Octopus Agile rates and can either set times or prices at five levels depending on the overnight rates. This program then sets the memory flag values in the mini server ready for the wallbox  config to use. 

What is the actual difference between SM1-5, LM1-5 and PM1-5 as the documentation is vague?

What I am trying to do is charge the car optimally - i.e charge through the night but push 7.4kW at the cheapest rates in the next 8 hours and the minimum configurable 4.16kW during the Octopus Agile peak 30min periods until the car is 80% charged.

thanks!

Just realised that the Cp - charge power could be set by the java program based on the octopus rate.
Also, that the minimum can be set in the props.
