Generator startup from BMV-712 or SmartSolar 100/30?

Hi all

Does anyone know if either the 712 or the mppt 100/30 have the capability of starting a generator on an alarm activation?

Thanks

Easyiest way is with BMV. Maxiumratings of that BMV realy are 60V / 1A


You also can do it with SmartSolar and a Digital TX Cabel combined with a SolidStateRelay
