Multiplus II GX Remote Console Switch

Hi - the switch on the Multiplus II GX remote console has 4 positions. Off, charger only, inverter only and on.

Very simple question - does "Off" turn the MPII off or does it put the unit in bypass mode. If it doesn't put it in Bypass mode is there a simple way to do this? So it's neither inverter or charger is engaged?

@John Mitchell Mobile off-grid or ESS system? The system will be off and the ACIN relay open. Depending on the setup, either a manual bypass switch is required or you can use the switch in inverter mode only, grid code set to no DC feedin allowed and when hooked up to shore it will disable the inverter and go into passthru without charging the batteries.

Grid connected. So turning it off will disconnect power to all those circuits. Shame "Bypass" is not an option on the switch.

Also, off in remote console turns only the multiplus off, not the built in GX device

Good to know - thanks! So you don't get locked out of the system.
