phoenix multiplus 12/3000/120 year 2009 connection to pc

Hello

I like to know what software and cable to use for connecting my old inverter/charger to a pc.

I need to change absorption and float voltage due to battery bank change.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Can you tell us the serial number of your device? The firmware is also interesting. The original firmware is printed on a sticker on the CPU.

Depending on that you can use the MK3 or MK2 interface and the normal VE.config or an older version.

The normal VE.config software and a MK3 Interface should work with your device.

I already answered 5 days ago.

"The normal VE.config software and a MK3 Interface should work with your device."

To be sure you can still use the MK2.

Hello. thanks for your reply. I am currently in the caribbean and a guest will bring me the interface. I need to be sure about wich interface will work better. Should I go for the MK2?

Does the VE.config software works with mac?

Hello Matthias. what you mean with "to be sure you can use the MK2" ? Should I try with mk2 or mk3?

VE.Config is Windows only.

VE.Bus is a normal RJ45 cable.

The MK2 will work with old and new units (maybe a bit slower) the MK3 does not work with all old units.
