A First Look at Programming the Victron MultiPlus-II 5kVA & Ignoring AC Input on the Inverter

We're moving along on the installation of the Victron 10kVA kit from Current Connected. In this video we'll be taking our first look at how you are supposed to program the Victron MultiPlus-II 5kVA Inverters. You'll be coming along with me as I take a look at things for the very first time. I'll also be showing you one way I found to tell the inverters to ignore the AC In power when it's connected. That way the inverter doesn't always try and run off grid power.
