Think of Assistants as apps, as on a smart phone. Assistants are little applications that run inside a VE.Bus Multi, Inverter or Quattro. They reduce the overall cost of a system: in 99% of all installations it will not be necessary to add an additional PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to get for example load shedding, optimizing use of solar energy or automatically starting and stopping a genset. text/html 2019-01-22T09:16:19+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.victronenergy.com/live/assistants:how_to_update_an_assistant?rev=1548148579&do=diff How to update an Assistant When started, and connected to the internet, VEConfigure3 will automatically download the latest versions of Assistants.

The same procedure works for other Assistants as well. The used example refers to an Assistant which has later been renamed to PV Inverter support, and is also rarely used on new installations. The Self-consumption Hub-2 Assistant is used instead. It is not necessary, nor possible, to combine it with the PV Inverter support Assistant. text/html 2019-01-22T09:16:19+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.victronenergy.com/live/assistants:ignore_ac_input_using_the_generator_assistant?rev=1548148579&do=diff Ignore AC input using the Generator Assistant Introduction Ignoring AC input will force a Multi or Quattro into inverter-mode on certain conditions, even though there is mains or generator power available.

Use ESS instead. Original text This policy is intended for backup systems, with DC-coupled solar installed. Use it to make use of excess solar power: as soon as the batteries are full, AC loads will be co-powered with solar power. Power stored in the batteries will only be used to power the loads during a grid failure.
