 ==== Step 1: System ====
-First, confirm whether you can sell excess electricity back to the grid. If so, you'll be asked to provide details on the power limits for selling. The limit will be the lower value between your grid connection capacity and what your system can handle. For example, if your grid connection supports 17 kWh but your system can only handle 10 kWh, enter 10 kWh.

+**New: Disable solar at low buy prices**
+Energy prices sometimes drop very low; they can even go negative. At those moments your own solar
+power can actually cost you money: exporting the surplus is charged instead of paid, and buying from
+the grid is cheaper than using your own production. Dynamic ESS can now handle this for you. Open
+Advanced Settings and switch on Disable solar at low buy prices, then set your threshold. Whenever the
+buy price drops below it, solar production is paused automatically, and it resumes as soon as the price
+recovers. No need to keep an eye on the prices yourself.
+Note: Disabling solar production works with these systems: HS19, Multi RS, MultiPlus, MPPTs, PV inverters that support the SunSpec protocol and limiting.
