It is not necessary to set up a seperate grid outage alarm in VRM.

Once it is enabled in the System setup menu the GX device, it is automatically enabled in VRM.

So will VRM generate an alarm after 5 sec or 5 sec + 60 sec wait time ? Will you also get an email notification ( if setup on your profile ) ?

Hello,

how to do it in oposite way - disable it in VRM?

I have 'monitor for grid failure' disabled in Cerbo, There is no notification.

There was one grid failure on 22.02.2021 where was disconnected external AC from camper while Invertor was running. All others messages are fake alarms generated by VRM.
