-===== Configuration =====
+===== Configuration and Connections =====
 As the EasySolar is made of different elements, the configuration requires use of several configuration tools.
-==== SmartSolar MPPT solar charge controller ====
+==== Integrated 250/70 SmartSolar MPPT solar charge controller with Bluetooth ====
-The MPPT solar charge controller is programmable in the VictronConnect app via Bluetooth on Android, iOS and macOS, though not Windows at this stage. For full compatibility information with various platforms, please see https://www.victronenergy.com/live/victronconnect:start
+PV Solar connections up to 250 VOC are made via M6 (?) lugs.
+There is a replaceable ?????Amp???? ????type??? Fuse.
-The VE.Direct port that is located on the EasySolar-II GX is connected to the GX device, not the MPPT. It cannot be used for connection of USB to VE.Direct cable for programming the MPPT.

 ==== Multiplus Inverter / Charger ====
+Programming the Multiplus Inverter / Charger requires use of [[drafts:veconfigure|VEConfigure]].
+This can be done locally via an [[https://www.victronenergy.com/accessories/interface-mk3-usb|MK3 USB dongle]], or over the internet with [[vrm_portal:remote-veconfigure|Remote VEConfigure]].
-Programming the Multiplus Inverter / Charger requires a MK3 USB dongle for offline local programming, or can be done via an internet connection with Remote VEConfigure https://www.victronenergy.com/live/vrm_portal:remote-veconfigure
+==== GX Device ====
+The integrated GX device includes a single VE.Can interface. This can be used to connect to either Victron VE.Can devices (eg VE.Can MPPTs) OR the port can be reconfigured via the Remote Console for use with a [[battery_compatibility:start|compatible CAN-bus Battery]].
-===== Example wiring diagrams =====
+The VE.Direct port is for connection of other VE.Direct devices, such as a BMV battery monitor, or an additional MPPT solar charge controller, so that they can be monitored by the GX.
