+ | Fischer Panda generator can be connected to a GX Device, which makes it possible to monitor | ||
+ | |||
+ | The generator needs to be connected to the VE.Can port of the GX Device, which requires a Fischer Panda SAE J1939 module. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Requirements | ||
+ | * [[venus-os: | ||
+ | * Fischer Panda generator, xControl or iGenerator | ||
+ | * Fischer Panda SAE J1939 CAN module (part number 0006107) | ||
+ | * Fischer Panda FP-Bus to VE.Can adapter (part number 0023441) | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Fischer Panda Firmware requirements: | ||
+ | * iControl (for the iGenerator): | ||
+ | * iControl panel: no minimum requirement | ||
+ | * xControl (for the constant speed generators): | ||
+ | * xContr panel: 4V29 | ||
+ | * Fischer Panda SAE J1939 CAN module: 2V05 | ||
+ | * Fischer Panda three phase module: 4V0b | ||
+ | ===== Connecting ===== | ||

+ | The schematic below shows how to connect a Fischer Panda iControl generator. | ||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | **:!: Important: Operation of the generator is only possible and allowed when the xControl or the iControl panel is switched on. ** | ||
+ | ===== GX Device ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | In Settings -> Services, the selected canbus profile must be one that says NMEA2000. (The default). | ||
