On Victron SCC's & Multi Inverters which have the 'remote' on/off switch, can a 12v 0.8A output from a 'non victron BMS' relay be sufficient to operate these switches directly? If not, what hardware needs to be connected to make this functional? Relay is 'always powered on' until disconnect signal.
Hoping i could just use an 'Inverting remote on-off cable (ASS030550100)'
Specifications:
Maximum input voltage: 70 V
Maximum output voltage: 70 V
Minimum input voltage needed for pull down: approximately 6 V
Maximum pull down current:approximately 30 mA (short circuit proof)

This appears at first glance to fit the bill....might i be correct in my assumption?

I really liked the all in one units (easysolar 5kw), but the more i delve into this, the more i realise i need individual control over the SCC and inverter/charger aspects, rather than cabling of the 'all in one' type units. (Now thinking along the lines of a 150/70 VE.can & a Multiplus 48/5000/70) Both with remote switching and i'm looking at what i need to utilise BMS relay controllers.

Thanks
