Hi,
Sorry i’m new to Victron and Node-Red. I have a dual Orion XS plugged on the alternator to recharge a 800AH set of battery, all that connected to a CerboGX.
I’d like to be able to:
- add a switch (using an input IO of the GX IO Extender) to be able to manually stop or lower the input current of the Orions (or maybe turn one down)
- add a programmatic delay before the OrionXS start charging the battery when I turn the car ON
I know, some of this can be done in the Orion config (or via the Cerbo screen).
So, my question is not about why or how… I can use the custom Control to change the settings/ChargeCurrentLimit or other Orion parameters.
My question is about the DC - DC control and other DC something nodes… It seems they are not meant to control the Orion XS ? Is there anything else i’m missing ? Is the only solution using the Custom nodes ?
As a side question, is there a way to list all the nodes that actually have a device connected to ? Or is there a list of the mapping of the Victron products and the related nodes ?
Many thanks to all an happy new year !
