Phoenix Inverter Control
This panel can also be used on a
MultiPlus inverter/charger when an
automatic transfer switch but no charger
function is desired.
The brightness of the LEDs is
automatically reduced during night time.
Computer controlled operation and monitoring
Several interfaces are available:
- MK2.2 VE.Bus to RS232 converter
Connects to the RS232 port of a computer (see ‘A guide to VEConfigure’)
- MK2-USB VE.Bus to USB converter
Connects to a USB port (see ‘A guide to VEConfigure’)
- VE.Net to VE.Bus converter
Interface to VE.Net (see VE.Net documentation)
- VE.Bus to NMEA 2000 converter
- Victron Global Remote
The Global Remote is a modem which sends alarms, warnings and system
status reports to cellular phones via text messages (SMS). It can also log
data from Victron Battery Monitors, Multi’s, Quattro’s and Inverters to a
website through a GPRS connection. Access to this website is free of charge.
- Victron Ethernet Remote
To connect to Ethernet.
BMV Battery Monitor
The BMV Battery Monitor features an
advanced microprocessor control system
combined with high resolution
measuring systems for battery voltage
and charge / discharge current. Besides
this, the software includes complex
calculation algorithms, like Peukert’s
formula, to exactly determine the state of
charge of the battery. The BMV selectively
displays battery voltage, current,
consumed Ah or time to go. The monitor
also stores a host of data regarding
performance and use of the battery.
Several models available (see battery
monitor documentation).
