Cerbo and LCD GX

Setting up a new system. Ordered a Cerbo/Touch 50 and Easysolar. Dealer tells me the Easysolar 48/5000 is only currently available in the Mk Ii versíon with built in GX device. I need the Cerbo for the screen and extra inputs. I didn't find any documentation saying it can or cannot be done.

Can these run together? If not, can the LCD GX be disabled?

You have to open up the EasySolar GX an disconnect the GX module (VE.Bus and power supply).

btw you would have the same problem with the old EasySolar because that have a Color Control build-in.

Thanks. Was thinking the colour control in the old model wasn't the GX.

I'm not sure if it's the one bolted to the case on the left, or the one in the middle at the other end of the VE.bus cable. Please identify the card for me. Thanks.

Thanks @Matthias Lange - DE

I've really messed up here. Disconnecting the GX power supply there was a spark and pop. Now I can't get the multiplus to turn on. Guess it's a dealer job.

Hope you can imagine me kicking my backside and eating crow pie at the same time.
