Could something like this be used in a victron system that does not have ESS enabled? #1

Hi, nice repo I'm in the process of configuring my ESS system, however I may have to run the system not in ESS mode due to grid code and not wishing to backfeed to the grid. However this means I can't setup scheduled charging from my GX unit in the ESS settings. I was thinking I could manually switch my inverter from "invert" to "on" (invert + charge) at certain times of day when energy is cheap, but this is a lot of manual effort so I'd rather automate that process. Maybe that's possible simply with a relay that enables the charger between certain times of day, I'm not sure. Wondered if you'd have any thoughts on my situation?

That is very well possible. However, this repo focusses only on systems with and ESS.

I suggest to post the question on the Node RED space of the community forum instead.
