* BackfeedLimited - The system is configured for inadvertent export and therefore will not further discharge to respect this limit. It appears this controls backfeed before PTO, under the "Permission to Operate" option under the settings menu. Prior to PTO the backfeed rate is limited, as the system needs to produce over the load, but by the minimum possible. The system seems to regulate this by switching MCI's open/closed, to minimize the overage that must be backfed, as the power has to go somewhere, and at this point the batteries are 100%. This seems to toggle that setting per inverter.

* POD_w031_SW_Brick_OV - It seems that the Brick warnings are related to preventing the condition where the powerwall doesn't have the minimum amount of power it needs to turn back on. When this happens, a third party charger is needed to get the powerwall back to it's minimum operating battery requirement to turn back on, or it's "bricked". Solar cannot return it to this state, because it needs power to make power.
