If the “Time remaining” indicates three dashes: “---” this means that the battery monitor is in an unsynchronised state. This
occurs when the battery monitor has just been installed or after it has been left unpowered and is powered up again. For more
information, see see the
Synchronising the battery monitor [19] chapter.
5.3. Using the head unit menus
Alternatively, use the VictronConnect app to access the battery monitor settings. See the chapter The
VictronConnect app [11] on how to do this.
When the battery monitor is powered up for the first time or when the factory settings have been restored, the battery monitor will
start the quick setup wizard; see chapter:
Setup wizard [10] . After that, the battery monitor will operate in normal mode, and the
battery menu can be accessed as described in this chapter.
The battery monitor is controlled by the four buttons on the head unit. The function of the buttons depends on which mode the
battery monitor is in. This is indicated in the below table.
If the backlight is off, press any button to restore the backlight.
