Connecting Smart BMS CL 12/100 to the NEW version MultiPlus 2kVA 120V

I saw this post from another member on the old community site asking the exact question I am looking to answer, so I thought I would just repost:

Connecting Smart BMS CL 12/200 to the NEW version MultiPlus 2kVA 120V

It’s very clear from the manuals and previous threads here how to connect the Load/Charge Disconnect ports of the Smart BMS CL 12/200 to pretty much any MulitPlus EXCEPT the newest version of the MultiPlus 12/2000/80 120V that looks specifically like this:


The manuals for Multi’s and the Smart BMS CL refer to the older versions, the compact versions, the 3kVA+ version etc. but this new one has a new, unique set of port connections that are not captured in any of the manuals [or previous threads from what I found].

This version does not have Aux inputs and does not have 3-pin remote switch ports. It only has a 2-pin remote on/off port and a 2-pin temp sensor port (arrows in the image above)

1a) Do I use the Inverting remote on-off cable (ASS030550120)?

1b) If so, do I use 2 of them (1 for load disconnect and 1 for charge disconnect) and which ports do they connect to? (This would be similar to the Multi 3kVA+ versions where I would then use VE Configure to set the response for each of the ports used)

  • or -

2a) Do I use the Cable for Smart BMS CL 12-100 to MultiPlus (PN: ASS070200100)

2b) If so, which ports do I connect to? The 2-pin remote on/off ports are not lebelled - how do I know what is “+”,“-”,“L” or “H”?

2c) If so, does this mean there is only ON or OFF - no option for “Charge Only”?
