Remote control of Phoenix 12/375 via MPPT 100/20

Hi!

Ive got a MPPT 100/20 regulator and a Phoenix 12/375 inverter.

I would like to control the inverter with the MPPT 100/20 regulator and now I wonder …

Do I just need to connect the left side of the remote control on the inverter to the load + output on the regulator or do I need the special cable “ASS030550100”. The manual is not obvious.


Best regards

Petter

Or a relay normally open (NO) Instead of the bridge two cables towards the relay contacts and actuating via the 100/20. Cheaper but needs some juice

Or is this connection purpose tell to MPPT current Phoenix 375 VA workload and wake it up to produce More "juice" from panel ? Manual of MPPT 100/20 says there is no need for special cable, just one ordinary wire between remote left and MPPT's load output. Olen models like 350 W Phoenix need special cable says manual

Maybe relay is built-in these 375 VA models, if just a wire is good to go ?

There is no need of an special cable with the 12/375, a simple cable connected as you indicate works fine with mine.
