Turning the MultiPlus-II 48/5000/70-48 off and on remotely from the CCGX

Hi,

I have an off- grid installation in the mountains in Norway (300km) from home and as the days grows shorter and shorter I have realized that the 18-20W the inverter draws will drain my batteries so I need to shut it down, I would like to turn it on again from time to time (remotely), but I have painted my selves into a corner since my WiFi 4G router is powered from the AC side of the inverter. I’m planning to power the router from the DC side, but if I cannot turn the inverter on again remotely (by the CCGX) I might as well leave everything as it is and shut the system down for the winter.

The system consists of the following components:

  • Color Control GX
  • MultiPlus-II 48/5000/70-48
  • BYD B-Box Pro 7.5
  • SmartSolar Charger MPPT 250/60

Regards

Sveinung
