4.4.6 Three-phase operation (see appendix D) 

The MultiPlus can also be used in 3-phase wye (Y) configuration. To this end, a connection 

between the devices is made by means of standard RJ45 UTP cables (the same as for 

parallel operation). The system (MultiPlus units plus an optional control panel) will require 

subsequently configuration (see Section 5). 

Pre-requisites: see Section 4.4.5. 

 

5. CONFIGURATION 

 

 

Settings may only be changed by a qualified engineer 

Carefully read the instructions before changes are made. 

Batteries should be placed in a dry and well-ventilated area during charging. 

 

5.1 Standard settings: ready for use 

 

On delivery, the Multi is set to standard factory values. In general, these settings are 

suitable for single-unit operation. 

 

Warning: Possibly, the standard battery charging voltage is not suitable for your 

batteries! Refer to the manufacturer's documentation or to your battery supplier!
