@kevgermany

It should be. Are you using the not GX version of the DMC?

They usually connect straight to the VE bus like the VEbus Smart BT dongle.

Haven't bought one yet. I just remember seeing a post here somewhere about compatibility, but can't find it and manuals didn't throw anything up.

But I need an on/off for the EasySolar inverter function in an accessible place. The Cerbo display is at the end of the boat and too complicated for someone I'll be sharing the boat with.

Looking at it again, I didn't realise there was a GX and non GX version. Can't see any difference from the product pages. Is there a GX device in the GX version?

As far as I know it's just the design. The GX looks like a Color Control GX.

The functionality is the same.

That explains the colour control box as a related product.

I have no idea, I have never seen a GX version.

There are some systems where you can't use it like with the ve bus BMS I think. Since the on off switch is overridden by the BMS.

Thanks. I've just ordered one, happens to be the GX version. Let's see, my batteries are Pylons.
