Turning The Charger On And Off; Led Brightness - Victron energy Skylla-i Control GX Mode D'emploi

1.1 Turning the charger on and off

The Skylla-i charger is switched on and off by briefly pressing the on|off button. Note that the main
power switch on the charger is dominant, once it is switched off on the charger, the panel cannot
switch the charger on anymore.
1.2 Setting the charger input current limit
The input current limit is modified by briefly pressing and releasing the rotary knob. The selection
will automatically jump to input current limit if it was not yet active. Next the display shows the
actual input current limit and blinks. Turn the rotary now to modify the input current limit. To
confirm the new value either wait several seconds or briefly press and release the rotary knob.

1.3 LED brightness

For your comfort, the brightness of the LEDs is controlled automatically using a light sensor.
When the ambient light level becomes lower the LEDs will be less bright which is more pleasant
for the eye and reduces power consumption.
1.4 Multiple Skylla-i's and Control panels in one VE.Can network
Several Skylla-i control panels can be connected to one charger or to a set of synchronized and
parallel connected chargers.
It is not necessary to configure anything in an out of the box installation. Connecting all Skylla-i's,
the control panel and placing the terminators is sufficient. Only in installations where multiple
Skylla-i's are on the same VE.Can network while charging different battery banks, do settings
need to be altered to prevent them from synchronizing. A Skylla-i chargers and Skylla-i control
panels recognize each other based on the device instance. The default device instance is zero for
both control panels and Skylla-i's. To change the device instance, use a NMEA2000 network tool
from for example Actisense or Maretron.
To manually reset the device instance in the Skylla-i control panel to zero, press and hold the
pushbutton on the back for four seconds. After the four seconds the panel will restart (all LEDs will
temporary light up), and the device instance is to zero.
See the latest version of the Skylla-i manual for the list of error and warning codes. Note that
mentioned functionality is available from firmware v2.00 in both the Skylla-i and the Skylla-i control
panel.
