Victron Garmin 8600MFD "OneHelm" INVERTER ONLY Feature Request

Good morning,

We love Victron/Garmin "ONEHELM". We monitor all our Yacht's energy systems on the Garmin Multi-Function Displays while underway. Garmin also has a separate Wi-Fi network. This screen shot is coming from my iPad Pro emulating the Flybridge Multi-Function Display showing Victron Energy.

Before we land our Trawler Yacht at a dock or at anchor, we like to isolate the Northern Lights Generator from any electrical loads so that it only supports Hydraulics only. This way we do not overwhelm the Northern Lights Generator, stalling it. So, the Quattro/Lithium support all the electrical loads and the NL generator supports the Hydraulic loads. To do this we have to go to the Cerbo GX and under the Quattro settings select "Inverter Only". We go back to "ON" so that the Quattro’s auto sense the NL Generator or Shore Power and selects and passes the proper 240 VAC source.

As a feature request can Victron Energy add "Inverter Only" to Garmin "ONEHELM" please?

Hey @editwiz , via via (thank Bruce!) my attention was drawn to this old post.


I'm happy to report that this is fixed in the revamped version of that Marine MFD app, called Onehelm by Garmin.
