Hello everyone,
In my motorhome, I use the Phoenix IP43 charger, among other things. Unfortunately, it isn’t DVCC-compatible, so when I’m at a campsite, I’d like to switch it off when mains electricity is charged for and there’s enough solar power.
The charger can be switched off via a relay contact. My question is: can I use the Cerbo GX relay connection for this? In the manual, I mainly found instructions for generator start/stop: and now I’m unsure.
Many thanks and best wishes,
Michael
Isn’t there a way to control the Phoenix directly via the Cerbo?
Otherwise, just connect two wires from the remote contact to the Cerbo’s relay, then switch the relay on and off manually.
I did it on my system just as Matthias Lange suggested. It works perfectly.
Good morning,
Yes, that’s how I’ve connected it too. It would still be better if the Cerbo controlled it itself (DVCC).
Kind regards,
Michael
The way the ip43s are priced they aren’t far away from a similar sized multiplus…but yes no 120/240V ac input support.
