MultiPlus 24/5000 - not allowing changes with digital multi control

Hi,

today I was installing my bought (used) Multiplus.
But it is not working as I thought:

I Had connected a Multi Control and a new Color Control.

In the display from the Multi-Control I can only see "AC-1" --- I can't switch the input amperes.

Then I can't make any changes with the Color Control. (because a VE.bus is installed?)

The Multiplus is only loading the batteries (4x 200 LPT Victron) with 1,9A also they are on 80%

Is there anything big mistake I do not see? The former used 24/3000 was working without any problems...

Refer to section 3.1 in the CCGX Manual;

https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start

If you are running a VE.Bus BMS then the 'input current limit control' in the CCGX is disabled.

However you can control this from a 'Digital Multi Control' panel, just make sure that;

1- It is plugged into the 'Remote Panel' port on the VE.Bus BMS unit.

2- That the 'Overruled by Remote' option is selected in VE.Configure.

OK, thank you for the fast answer. That means, I need such an USB-Interface to configure the Multiplus with the VE.Configure out from the computer...

And the the very low current for charging the batteries must be an other problem?
