    NOTE: This manual is intended for products with firmware xxxx400 or higher (with x any number) The firmware number can be found on the microprocessor, after removing the front panel. It is possible to update older units, as long as that same 7 digit number starts with either 26 or 27. When it starts with 19 or 20 you have an old microprocessor and it is not possible to update to 400 or higher.

    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" terminal, if within specifications. The inverter will switch off, the "mains on"...

  • Page 9: Installation

    4. Installation This product may only be installed by a qualified electrical engineer. 4.1 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 10 cm around the appliance for cooling.
  • Page 10 Maximum torque: 1,6 Nm The terminal blocks can be found on the printed circuit board, see Appendix A. 4.3.1 Models with 16 A transfer capacity (eg MultiPlus 12/3000/120-16 230 V) AC-in • The AC input cable must be connected to the terminal block “AC–in”.
  • Page 11 4.4 Optional Connections A number of optional connections are possible: 4.4.1 Second Battery The MultiPlus has a connection for charging a starter battery. For connection see Appendix A. 4.4.2 Voltage Sense For compensating possible cable losses during charging, two sense wires can be connected with which the voltage directly on the battery or on the positive and negative distribution points can be measured.
  • Page 12 5. Configuration • Settings may only be changed by a qualified electrical engineer. • Read the instructions thoroughly before implementing changes. During setting of the charger, the AC input must be removed. • 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. Warning: Possibly, the standard battery charging voltage is not suitable for your batteries! Refer to the manufacturer's documentation, or to your battery supplier!

Adjustability: 210 – 245 V Stand-alone / parallel operation / 2-3 phase setting Using several devices, it is possible to: • increase total inverter power (several devices in parallel) create a split-phase system by stacking (only for MultiPlus units with 120 V output voltage) •...
  • Page 14 Note: when WeakAC is on, the maximum charge current is reduced by approximately 20 %. Not adjustable with DIP switches. BoostFactor Change this setting only after consulting with Victron Energy or with an engineer trained by Victron Energy! Not adjustable with DIP switches. Programmable relays The models with 16 A transfer capacity (see section 4) are equipped with one programmable relay that by default is set as an alarm relay.
  • Page 15 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). The most common settings can be changed by means of DIP switches (see Section 5.5). NOTE: This manual is intended for products with firmware xxxx400 or higher (with x any number) The firmware number can be found on the microprocessor, after removing the front panel.
  • Page 16 5.5 Configuration with DIP switches A number of settings can be changed using DIP switches (see appendix A, position M). Note: When changing settings with DIP switches in a parallel or split-phase/3-phase system one should be aware that not all settings are relevant on all Multis.
  • Page 17 Procedure The AC input current limit can be set using DIP switches ds8, ds7 and ds6 (default setting: 50 A, automatically limited to 16 A in 16 A models). Procedure: set the DIP switches to the required value: off = 6 A (1.4 kVA at 230 V) on = 10 A (2.3 kVA at 230 V) off = 12 A (2.8 kVA at 230 V) on = 16 A (3.7 kVA at 230 V)
