 This manual describes how to remotely change settings in our MultiPlusses, MultiGrid, MultiPlus-II, Quattros and high power Inverters; all power products with a VE.Bus communication port. A feature called ''Remote VEConfigure''.

+===== 3. System shutdown during reconfiguration =====
 Many settings can be changed without resulting in a shutdown during the re-configuration. Some settings though, such as a changed Assistants configuration, will cause the inverter/charger to momentarily switch off and back on again. In such situations, VEConfig will warn when saving the settings:
 {{ :ccgx:remote-veconfig-vebus-reset-warning.png?nolink |}}
+known issue: Venus versions v2.23 and below always reset the Multi when the following settings are changed.
+  - Battery Capacity
+  - Start and stop limits for low power AES mode
+  - State of charge when Bulk finished (only resets with Multi firmware versions < 200)
 Depending on how the internet communication equipment (ie. router) is powered, the internet connection might also be temporarily lost at that time.
