10.3. Grid failure monitoring
When this feature is enabled, an alarm is raised when the system hasn't been connected to the AC input configured to be Grid or
Shore for more than 5 seconds.
• The alarm shows as a Notification in the GUI and as an alarm on the VRM Portal. It is also available on ModbusTCP / MQTT.
• Recommend to use for backup systems. But also for yachts or vehicles on shore power.
Note that this settings monitors that the system is connected to grid/shore. Generator monitoring is already available as part of
the Generator start/stop function and not part of this.
Do not use this feature in systems that use the Ignore AC Input settings in our inverter/chargers: when the
system ignores the AC input, ie. runs in island mode, as intended, even though grid is available, it will report a
grid failure.
10.4. Advanced menu
The Advanced menu can be accessed from Device List → [Multi or Quattro] → Advanced and contains options for equalisation,
redetect and restart VE.Bus system and shows the ESS relay test status.
• Equalisation: Starts equalisation. See Multi or Quattro documentation for details.
• Redetect VE.Bus system: Clears the cache on the Color Control GX that has certain data of the VE.Bus system stored to
keep the boot time as short as possible. Use this feature if, for example, a VE.Bus BMS used to be part of a system and is no
longer used or replaced by a Lynx Smart BMS. When using Redetect VE.Bus system, the inverter/charger does not switch off
for a couple of seconds like it would do when using Restart VE.Bus system..
• Restart VE.Bus system: Restarts the inverter/charger (just like switching it off and on again from the main rocker switch at the
front) if it failed to restart automatically (after 3 attempts), for example, after a (very) heavy overload; or three overloads in a
row. Any persistent errors such as a repeated and unrecoverable overload error, are deleted.
• AC Input 1 ignored: Status of the AC Input 1 flag
• ESS Relay test: Shows the status of the ESS Relay test. Only relevant when its an ESS system. See Q9 in the
FAQ
for details.
