Quattro 12/5000/220-2x100 120V meaning

Our boat came with this Quattro pre-installed and set up. The boat is kept in BVI.

  1. Please tell me what these numbers mean?
  2. Specifically, is it set up to connect only to 220v shore power?
  3. Is the inverter set to provide only 120v AC?
  4. Is the frequency limited to 50 or 60 Hz?
  5. Can we change these settings, particularly for shore power, if we take the boat to Europe or other non-North American destinations? Or, does the Quattro automatically adjust to the shore power characteristics (volts and Hz)?
  6. What file should I use to upgrade the firmware should the need arise?
  7. Can the firmware upgrade file be automatically selected via an online update?

Best wishes, Bob

Did you take a look at the datasheet and manual?

https://www.victronenergy.com/inverters-chargers/quattro

There are most (or all) answers to your questions.

The numbers:

Battery voltage/Power (VA)/charging current - transfer relay capacity and AC voltage

What are our options for using European 230v shore power? I'm guessing a new charger only for the batteries and powering our existing 60 Hz loads with the Quattro inverter and/or existing generator.
