Step 6: Commissioning
The HoneyBadger is commissioned and tested in RedEarth’s factory to guarantee correct operation.
However, on-site parameter adjustments may be required (e.g., modifying generator size or increasing
energy storage capacity).
There are four ways to change parameters,
1.
Using the Colour Control GX display on the HoneyBadger – not all parameters can be changed
this way (e.g., generator size)
2.
By connecting a laptop with Victron VEConfiguration software downloaded onto it. In
addition, a Mk3 device is required to physically connect the laptop to the Victron equipment.
3.
On-line, by logging into Victron’s VRM portal once the system is connected to the internet via
RedEarth’s built-in 4G SIM.
4.
Contact RedEarth tech support during the installation and they can change parameters for
you.
NOTE: Changes must be made by a qualified person.
NOTE: To make changes by directly connecting a laptop to the HoneyBadger a MK3 device is required.
This is not supplied with the HoneyBadger but is available separately. The VE Config program can be
downloaded from Victron’s web page

The original Victron Quattro inverter and
MPPT manuals are included with the
documentation
supplied
with
the
HoneyBadger, along with the inverter
configuration sheet. These can be referred to
as required when adjusting system
parameters.
All parameters that are configured by using
the Victron MK3 device are printed in a sheet
and supplied with the rest of the
HoneyBadger documentation. To change
parameters using the MK3, please refer to the
VEConfigure Manual available on Victron’s web page.
