Starting Predbat in Monitor mode, should not be changing inverter settings #1508

I have these two lines in my apps.yaml

inverter_limit_discharge:

At the moment I'm running PredBat in monitor mode exclusively as I test our some of my own automations (PredBat charts still very useful!).

I've noticed that when I restart PredBat it writes the discharge limit to the inverter. I think this shouldn't be happening when PredBat is in monitor mode. I don't see this behaviour with the charge limit.

I believe that 'read only' toggle is the one you want to use, although I agree having monitor mode change things is a little misleading.
