How quickly will the system respond to grid pricing changes? How often does the LinkZB/LinkPro send updates to my inverter?

The inverter is curtailed based on your Amber price, with a new price published every 5 minutes. The inverter responds within seconds of receiving the 5-minute price signal. The 'Solar for Amber' automation plan retrieves the Amber price every 5 minutes and instructs the LinkZB or LinkPro to do 'export control' or not. During export control, the LinkZB/LinkPro reads the household consumption from the smart meter (if one is present) every 10 seconds and adjusts the inverter curtailment accordingly.
