2. DESCRIPTION 2.1 General Multi Compact -functional The MultiPlus Compact gets its name from the multiple functions it can perform. It is a powerful true sine wave inverter, a sophisticated battery charger that features adaptive charge technology and a high-speed AC transfer switch in a single compact enclosure. - Page 8 If, in order to quickly charge a battery, a high charge current in combination with a high absorption voltage has been chosen, damage due to excessive gassing will be prevented by automatically limiting the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage has been reached.

3. OPERATION 3.1 On/Off/Charger Only Switch When switched to "on", the product is fully functional. The inverter will come into operation and the LED "inverter on" will light up. An AC voltage connected to the "AC in" terminal will be switched through to the "AC out"... - Page 10 3.3.3 Activating equalisation or forced absorption The MultiPlus can be put into both these states from the remote panel as well as with the front panel switch, provided that all switches (front, remote and panel) are set to “on” and no switches are set to “charger only”.

4. INSTALLATION This product should be installed by a qualified electrician. 4.2 Location The product must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated area, as close as possible to the batteries. There should be a clear space of at least 10cm around the appliance for cooling. The product is suitable for wall mounting. - Page 14 Each system requires a method of disconnecting the AC and DC circuits. If the overcurrent protection device is a circuit breaker, it will also serve as the disconnect. If fuses are used, separate disconnect switches will be needed between the source and the fuses.
- Page 15 PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS i. Someone should be within range of your voice or close enough to come to your aid when you work near a lead-acid battery. ii. Have plenty of fresh water and soap nearby in case battery acid contacts skin, clothing, or eyes. iii.

• Locate marine unit away from battery in a separate, well ventilated compartment. • Never place marine unit directly above battery; gases from battery will corrode and damage marine unit. • Never allow battery acid to drip on marine unit when reading gravity or filling battery. - Page 17 Remark: Internal resistance is the important factor when working with low capacity batteries. Please consult your supplier or the relevant sections of our book “electricity on board”, downloadable from our website. Procedure Proceed as follows to connect the battery cables: Use an insulated box spanner in order to avoid shorting the battery.
- Page 18 An earth leakage circuit breaker and a fuse or circuit breaker rated to support the expected load must be included in series with the output, and cable cross-section must be sized accordingly. Victron Energy recommends to use the Blue Sea systems GFCI circuit breakersPN. 309X or 310X...

Page 19: Optional Connections
4.4 Optional Connections A number of optional connections are possible: Undo the four screws at the front of the enclosure and remove the front panel. 4.4.1 Second Battery The MultiPlus Compact has a connection (+) for charging a starter battery. For connection see appendix A. - Page 20 4.4.5 Parallel Connection The MultiPlus can be connected in parallel with several identical devices. To this end, a connection is established between the devices by means of standard RJ45 UTP cables. The system (one or more Multis plus optional control panel) will require subsequent configuration (see Section 5).
- Page 21 5. CONFIGURATION Settings may only be changed by a qualified engineer Carefully read the instructions before changes are made. Batteries should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated area during charging. 5.1 Standard settings: ready for use On delivery, the MultiPlus is set to standard factory values. In general, these settings are suitable for single-unit operation.
- Page 22 5.2 Explanation of settings Settings that are not self-explanatory are described briefly below. For further information, please refer to the help files in the software configuration programs (see Section 5.3). Inverter frequency Output frequency if no AC is present at the input. Adjustability: 50Hz;...
- Page 23 AES (Automatic Economy Switch) Instead of the search mode, the AES can also be chosen (with help of VEConfigure only). If this setting is turned ‘on’, the power consumption in no-load operation and with low loads is decreased by approx. 20%, by slightly 'narrowing' the sinusoidal voltage.
- Page 24 Bulk Protection When this setting is ‘on’, the bulk charging time is limited to 10 hours. A longer charging time could indicate a system error (e.g. a battery cell short-circuit). Not adjustable with DIP switches. AC input current limit These are the current limit settings at which PowerControl and PowerAssist come into operation.

5.3 Configuration by computer All settings can be changed by means of a computer or with a VE.Net panel (except for the multi-functional relay and the VirtualSwitch when using VE.Net). Some settings can be changed with DIP switches (see Section 5.2). For changing settings with the computer, the following is required: •... - Page 27 5.5 Configuration with DIP switches Some settings can be changed with DIP switches Procedure: a) Turn the Compact on, preferably without load and without AC voltage on the inputs. The Compact will then operate in inverter mode. b) Set the dipswitches as required. c) Store the settings by moving Dip switch 8 to “on”...

Page 40: Appendix F: Charge Curve
APPENDIX F: Charge curve Bulk-mode: Entered when charger is started. Constant current is applied until the gassing voltage is reached (14.4V resp. 28.8V, temperature compensated). Battery Safe Mode: If, in order to quickly charge a battery, a high charge current in combination with a high absorption voltage has been chosen, the Multi Compact / MultiPlus Compact will prevent damage due to excessive gassing by automatically limiting the rate of voltage increase once the gassing voltage has been reached.The Battery Safe Mode is part of the calculated absorption time. -
