Victron SmartSolar Pluggable Display

Victron SmartSolar Pluggable Display Victron's Smartsolar Pluggable Display (mpn scc900600010) easily attaches to the eponymous range of solar charge controllers and allows you to easily read the most important parameters of your solar system. Compatible with Smartsolar 150/45 and above up to 250/100. The smallest Smartsolar controllers not have a slot for the monitor.

The SmartSolar Control Display is a plug-in LCD display unit that can be fitted either permanently or temporarily to any Victron Energy SmartSolar BlueSolar MPPT controller that has a display port fitted. This port can be identified as a small plastic cover on the front of the controller with the text “display option”.

By removing the cover, the control screen SmartSolar connects to the port on the front of the controller and provides a wide range of live and historical data related to the charging performance of the solar system, as well as allowing you to configure various controller settings.

Examples of live and historical data that can be displayed are:

• PV power, efficiency, voltage and current
• Battery voltage, current and stage of charge
• Load output status and current (only available if the solar charger is equipped with a load output)
• 30 day historical values
• Cumulative historical values ​​for the lifetime of the solar charger.

MPPT: Ultra fast maximum power tracking

By constantly monitoring the output voltage and current of your solar panels (PV), MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is flushed from your panels and collected for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partly cloudy and the light intensity is constantly changing.

Remote monitoring and control

Remotely control and monitor the extensive capabilities of the SmartSolar MPPT charger with built-in Bluetooth by connecting it to your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect. If your installation is connected to the Internet with a GX device, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT, anytime, anywhere. So much for it VictronConnect as well as VRM is free to use. For remote installations – even when there is no internet connection nearby – you may be able to monitor your MPPT by connecting the GlobalLink 520 .

Output loading

The intelligent load output function prevents damage caused by running "empty" batteries. You can configure the voltage at which SmartSolar disconnects a load – thus preventing excessive draining of your batteries. And here's the smart part: SmartSolar will attempt a 100% recharge every day. If he can't – in times of bad weather – he turns up the disconnect voltage, every day, until he succeeds. We call this feature BatteryLife because it maintains the health and extends the life of your battery.

Product description Victron SmartSolar Pluggable Display

The display attaches directly to the front face of the solar charger. It can work as both a permanent and a temporary display. Simply remove the plastic cover protecting the display terminal on the front of the controller, then plug in the display. The display can be used to monitor the solar charger and to view both live and historical data. The display can also be used to configure the settings of the solar charger.

Installation

The display is connected to the display terminal on the front of the solar charger. The screen terminal is behind the plastic
cover with the text: “display option”.
To install the SmartSolar Control screen do the following:
1. Remove the two screws of the plastic cover. Keep the screws, they are needed again when fixing the screen.
2. Then remove the plastic cover. The screen terminal is now exposed.
3. Remove the two plastic plugs on each side of the display connector.
4. Remove the paper backing from the double-sided tape on the back of the display.
5. Insert the screen into the connector and make sure it is fully seated.
6. Screw in the screen using the two screws that were used for the plastic cover

What you need to know about Victron Energy solar chargers (charge controllers).

In this blog, we'll learn about Victron Energy solar chargers (charge controllers), how they work and what you need to know about them.

Solar energy is one of the most renewable and sustainable energy sources available today. Solar panels (photovoltaic panels) convert sunlight into electricity that can be used to power your home or business. Solar chargers are devices used to store and convert solar energy into electricity that can be used to power your electronic devices.

Victron Energy is a world leader in solar chargers (charge controllers) and other solar related products. Victron Energy solar chargers are some of the most popular and reliable solar chargers (charge controllers) on the market today.
