Can I configure a Multiplus with the Cerbo GX and not have to buy an MK3-USB?

Bumping an old thread here but I too would like to know what the Primary, Secondary and Echo settings do. It seems as though when I make a voltage change to one CC using my SCP that the other controller changes as well. Is this what Echo mode does? I am currently at our main home 1,200 miles...

Thanks guys. A couple years ago I spent more time than I care to admit trying to get a VPN working with Tmobile Home Internet. I gave up and bought a mini PC and installed it next to my solar equipment. I use TeamViewer to get into the computer then I can access Insight Local and my Orion BMS...

Thanks. Unfortunately being 1,200 miles away from our equipment Insight Cloud is the quickest way to make changes. I have to Teamview into my remote computer to use Insight Local. We have T-mobile home internet at our off grid place and there is zero configuration so a VPN is pretty much...

Yes I will post some pics. I was able to TeamView into our place and use Local to get into my system. Local shows all the info on my system same as shown above. Insight Cloud does allows remote configuration but doesn't show much info at all. It's really kind of a joke compared to Insight...

I think my home gateway version would show the same with Insight Local. I'm 1,200 miles away right now and can only access Insight Cloud which doesn't show all that info.

Thanks. I am using Insight Cloud. Can I use Insight Local remotely?

Thanks. Orion tech support told me my Jr.2 BMW is compatible with Insight Home if I had the XW Pro inverter. Sounds like it should work with my XW+ as well.

About a year ago I removed my Combox and installed the Insight Home box on our offgrid system. I can remote configure/monitor from anywhere which is why I made the switch. However, Insight Home doesn't have near the amount of info the Combox had. For example I can't see whether my charge...

Thanks. As I recall my disconnect was $95 and it's the heavy duty spring type disconnect.

I am using this disconnect at the advice of the AltE store. I have 12 360w panels in series so there aren't any breakers that I know of that can handle that type of voltage.

Thanks for the info. We are currently getting along fine with out Lischen 272ah setup using an Orion Jr.2 BMS. However on of my batteries is a runner so I can't set bulk/absorb above 54.4v. I think in five years or so will upgrade to three of the EG4s. Any reason I should keep my Conext...

I have an XW5548 which is the older plus version, not the pro. I have the Insight Home Gateway. Anyone know if the EG4 V2 will communicate with Insight Home Gateway if I have the non-pro inverter? I haven't been able to get this ? answered by EG4 or Signature Solar.

OP here. Ended up doing it right and installing 4.3kw of panels on an Iron Ridge ground mount. It's rock solid and the winter charging is insane. I may never run my generator again. I still have the 1.7kw array on the roof as well.
