System discharging below stipulated reserve SOC. What to do?

Hi all,

See my signature for my hardware.

System is running in general mode.

According to PV Master I have
SOC Protect ON
DOD on grid 60%

Currently we have overcast weather. PV is low. Battery has been discharging. The system did start drawing from grid when SOC hit 39%. It held at 39% and drew from grid for about 15 minutes (according to portal) but then started drawing from battery again. Whilst I wasn't looking the battery got down to 26%.

I have observed this behaviour before and reported it to the guys I bought the kit from. Does this happen EVERY time? I don't know. It doesn't get down to 40% very often. 

OK... any ideas about what I should do (that I can do, I'm not an electrician)?
