Cerbo relays verse the 712 relays?

I am curious why the Cerbo relay settings can't be as straight forward as the 712 relay functions? Why can't the Cerbo have a simple low voltage / high voltage relay setting? It just seems like the Cerbo relay settings are needlessly cumbersome.


Am I just not looking in the right place?

Hi,

is it possible to program Cerbo relay to start generator based on SOC value analysis ?

What are the specs (AC/DC voltage & current) of the two relays contacts ?

Thank for your help.

Regards.

Set the relay as a generator start stop and then set the voltage conditions in the generator menu. That is fairly simple.

The cerbo relays are meant for more complicated or more conditions that the BMV relay, i guess anyway. Otherwise what would be the point to it?
