See CCGX & Fischer Panda generators.
2 Configuration
2.1 Configurable parameters
After completing the installation and setting up the internet connection (if required), go through the
menu from top to bottom to configure the CCGX:
Item Default Description
General
Remote
support
Off Enable this to allow Victron engineers to access your system in case there is a problem.
Access level
User and
installer
Set this to 'User' to prevent accidental and unwanted changes to the configuration.
Audible alarm On When there is an alarm on the CCGX or a connected product, the CCGX will beep - unless this setting is set to 'Off'.
Demo mode Off
Turn 'On' to demonstrate product and installation features to a client or at an exhibition. This simulation mode will allow
better understanding without (yet) changing any settings.
Firmware

updates: Auto
update

and
update
We recommend the factory default. A reason to disable it would be to eliminate the risk of a firmware update causing
problems.
Online
updates:
Update to
Latest
release
Use the default setting unless you want to participate in test versions. End-user systems should certainly be set to 'Latest
release'.
Offline updates
Use this menu to install a new version from a microSD card or USB stick. Insert the card or stick that holds the new
firmware .swu file.
Stored backup firmware With this feature you can go back to the previously installed firmware version.

System setup
AC input 1 Generator Select Generator or Grid. (We will shortly be adding the setting 'Shore power' instead of grid.)
AC input 2 Grid Same choices as above.
Battery
monitor
Automatic Select the SOC source. This function is useful where there is more than one BMV. More details.
Synchronize VE.Bus SOC
with battery
Continuously copies the SOC from the battery monitor to the VE.Bus system. This feature is automatically enabled when
the active SOC source is not a VE.Bus device, and there is no Hub-2 Assistant configured. The purpose of this is to be
able to use the BMV SOC to trigger some Multi or Quattro features - such as Genset start/stop. Multis and Quattro's don't
use the SOC for any other purpose. More information
Use solar charger current
to improve VE.Bus SOC
Send the total charge current from all connected Solar chargers to the VE.Bus device to improve its SOC computations.
This feature is automatically active when 'Synchronize VE.Bus SOC with battery' is not active. Requires Multi Firmware
version >= 402. More information
Solar charger voltage
control
Use the 'charge voltage' information provided by the VE.Bus device to control the amount of power fed from solar
chargers back to the grid. Active if the ESS or Hub-1 assistant is present. (See also: 'Feed-in excess solar charger power'
in the ESS settings.)
Solar charger current
control
Limit the charge current of the connected solar chargers if a CAN.bus BMS is present - using the maximum charge
current information provided by the BMS.
