In VEBus firmware numbers.txt, is there any reason the 500VA is called a "Multi" but the 800VA and up are called "MultiPlus"?

Historically;
'Multi' only has a single AC input, and a single AC output, and did not have PowerAssist.
'MultiPlus' has a single AC input, and two AC outputs.
'Quattro' has two AC inputs, and two AC outputs.
That said, it's a bit tedious to always say MultiPlus, so it is often informally shortened to Multi.
And MultiPlus is now the recognised brand, so the new models now use MultiPlus, even those smaller ones with a single AC output, and without power assist.
Should always check the Datasheet for the specific features of each model.
Edited.
But the 800VA only has one AC Output (I think that applies right up to the 1600VA in the plastic series).
Yeah, you are right. Perhaps it is a distinction that has fallen out of use with the new models. I will ask and find out.
