-Beginning with [[https://www.victronenergy.com/blog/2017/06/13/ccgx-v2-07-fischer-panda-ess-and-more/|CCGX v2.07]] it became possible to read data from your Fischer Panda generator. The generator needs to be connected to the VE.Can port of the CCGX, which requires a Fischer Panda SAE J1939 module.
+Fischer Panda generator can be connected to a GX Device, which makes it possible to monitor & operate the generator as well as automatically start and stop it.

 ===== Maintenance =====
-Whenever performing maintenance on the generator, be sure to //stop// the generator from the Fischer Panda control panel. This will disable the Fischer Panda autostart feature, and ensure that the generator cannot be remotely started - by a CCGX, for example.

 When the maintenance is completed, make sure you enable the autostart feature again. You can do this on the Fischer Panda control panel in the menu ''generator -> autostart -> turn on / off''.
+===== MFD App ====
+The Marine MFD HTML5 app (more information [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_app|here]]) also contains an element which allows monitoring as well as control of the Fischer Panda generator:

 ===== Troubleshooting =====
 === I've set the mode of the genset to 'On' or 'Auto start/stop' but the generator is not starting/running. ===
-Make sure the Fischer Panda autostart feature is on, this allows the CCGX control the remote on/off of the genset. You can find this option on the control panel in the menu ''generator -> autostart -> turn on / off''.

 If you're manually trying to start the genset, a toast message appears with the text ''AutoStart functionality is currently disabled, enable it on the genset panel in order to start the genset from this menu''.
