Phoenix Smart (1+1): two
Outputs for charging two battery banks
The second output is for charging
of the starter battery. Consequently, it is limited to 3 A and has a
something
lower output voltage for
Maintaining the charge of the usually full starter battery.
Phoenix Smart (3): three full
Power outputs for charging 3 battery banks
Each output can have the full

Automatic
Voltage compensation
The charger compensates
a voltage drop on the DC cables by reducing the output voltage
slightly increased if the
DC current increases. For more details, see the manual.

Lithium-ion (LiFePO₄ ) batteries
It is possible to
On/Off control by connecting a relay or optocoupler output with
open
Collector from a Li-Ion BMS to
remote on/off port.
Alternatively, voltage
and power can also be controlled entirely via Bluetooth.
Fully programmable
Loading algorithm
The charging algorithm can be
Bluetooth or program via the VE.Direct interface.
The MODE button can be used to switch between
three pre-programmed algorithms can be selected (see Technical
Declarations).
Remote On/Off
The remote on/off consists of
two terminals: Remote H and Remote L.
Between H and L a
Remote on/off switch or relay contact can be connected.
Alternatively, Terminal H
be pulled up, or terminal L can be pulled down.
See manual for details.
VE.Direct interface
For a wired
Data connection with a Color Control panel, a PC or other devices.
Please note the
VictronConnect app under Downloads/Software on our website.
Programmable relay
Can be accessed via the
VE.Direct interface or a Bluetooth-enabled device can be programmed,
to set off an alarm or other
to trigger events.
