+===== This product is deprecated, and no longer required! =====
+This interface was, only!, used in Hub-1 systems **with grid-feedback enabled**. It interfaced between the VE.Bus system and one or more MPPT solar chargers with a VE.Can connection: the [[https://www.victronenergy.com/solar-charge-controllers/mppt-150-70|MPPT 150/70]] and/or [[https://www.victronenergy.com/solar-charge-controllers/mppt-150-85|MPPT 150/85]].
+But, since the release of CCGX v1.73, it is no longer necessary.

-===== Intended usage =====
-This interface is, only, used in Hub-1 systems **with grid-feedback enabled**. It interfaces between the VE.Bus system and one or more MPPT solar chargers with a VE.Can connection: the [[https://www.victronenergy.com/solar-charge-controllers/mppt-150-70|MPPT 150/70]] and/or [[https://www.victronenergy.com/solar-charge-controllers/mppt-150-85|MPPT 150/85]].
 Normally these solar chargers will reduce their output power as soon as the battery voltages hits the absorption voltage. When the goal is to feedback excess power to the grid, the solar charger should continue to operate on the Maximum Power Point instead. By using this interface **together with the Hub-1 Assistant**, that is exactly what will happen: the VE.Bus device will instruct the solar charger to continue maximizing solar output, and any excess power available on the DC side will be fed back by the VE.Bus device into the grid.
