On the Cerbo GX, the USB socket closest to the HDMI connector can only be used to power a GX Touch. That USB port can not
be used for any data related functions such as VE.Direct to USB cables, USB-sticks, USB-GPS-es, or other common USB
usages. It’s a power port only, no data.
2.2. Power
The device is powered by using the Power in V+ connector. It accepts 8 to 70 V DC. The device will not power itself from any of
the other connections (eg network). The supplied DC power cable includes an inline 3.15 A slow blow fuse.
If the DC voltage exceeds 60V, the Cerbo GX is classified as a “built-in product”. Installation should be in such a way the user
cannot touch the terminals.
When the Cerbo GX is used in an installation with a VE.Bus BMS, connect the Power in V+ on the Cerbo GX to the terminal
labelled 'Load disconnect' on the VE.Bus BMS. Connect both negative leads to the negative stub of a common Battery.
A Cautionary word about Powering from the AC-out terminal of a VE.Bus Inverter, Multi or Quattro:
If you power the Cerbo GX from an AC adaptor connected to the AC-out port of any VE.Bus product (Inverter, Multi or Quattro),
then a deadlock will occur after the VE.Bus products are powered-down for any reason (after any operational fault or during a
black start). The VE.Bus devices will not boot-up until the Cerbo GX has power …but the Cerbo GX will not boot-up until it has
power. This deadlock can be rectified by briefly unplugging the Cerbo GX VE.Bus cable at which point you will observe the
VE.Bus products will immediately begin to boot-up.
Or a modification can be done to the RJ45 cabling. See FAQ Q20 [73]for more information about this.
Note that both with or without above modification, powering the monitoring equipment with the AC-out of an inverter/charger
(ofcourse) has the disadvantage that all monitoring is shut down when there is a problem that causes the inverter/charger to shut
