Victron Cerbo GX MK2: Power System Monitor
Cerbo GX MK2 vs Cerbo GX:
This model is a small hardware improvement over the prior one. In short, use the MK2 for systems that require either (a) an isolated VE.Can port or (b) dual full function CAN-bus ports, for example in larger RV and coach systems that contain both a VE.Can network as well as a RV-C network, or (c) three fully functional USB ports, instead of two.
This all-new communication-centre allows you to always have perfect control over your system from wherever you are and maximises its performance. Simply connect through our Victron Remote Management (VRM) portal, or access directly, using the separate GX Touch 50, a MFD or our VictronConnect app thanks to its added Bluetooth capability. This latest addition to the GX-range combines all the best of connectivity, redefining smart power solutions in every way.
Perfect monitoring & control
Instantly monitor the battery state of charge, power consumption, power harvest from PV, generator, and mains, or check tank levels and temperature measurements. Easily control the shore power input current limit, (auto)start/stop generator(s) or change any setting to optimise the system. Follow up on alerts, perform diagnostic checks and resolve challenges remotely. The Cerbo GX MK2 turns any power challenge into an effortless experience.
Maximise your system performance
The Cerbo GX MK2 maximises the performance of your systems components in real-time and keeps them in perfect tune. With its Dual Core Processor and the addition of an extra CAN-bus port you can now support even bigger systems; closely follow managed (lithium) batteries while the second port can support up to 25 simultaneously connected VE.Can solar chargers. The new NMEA 2000-out support has the GX easily integrated into any boats network. Four tank- and four temperature ports as well as 3 VE.Direct ports, 3 USB ports, 4 digital inputs and 2 relays allow you to expand control to a new level. Maximising systems performance was never this easy.
Expand your view
The new (optional) GX Touch 50 display allows you to have an instant overview of your system and adjust settings in the blink of an eye. Its super slim 5 inch waterproof design, top-mountable setup and its simple installation bring a lot of flexibility when creating a crisp and clean dashboard.
Simple mounting and configuration
The Cerbo GX MK2 is now optimised to more than meet the standards of installer professionals. The device is easily mountable on a DIN-Rail (with DIN35 adapter small, not included) and its separate touchscreen can now be bolted on top of a dashboard, eliminating the need to create perfect cut-outs (like with the Color Control GX) and is connected through just one cable, taking away the hassle of having to bring many wires to a dashboard. Its new Bluetooth feature enables a quick connection and configuration via our VictronConnect app.
Outsmart any power challenge
The Cerbo GX MK2 serves endless purposes, extending perfect control to the most diverse applications. For solutions including generators, such as Marine, or Backup & Off-grid, it will auto-start/stop your generator, or delays ignition until the end of ‘quiet’ periods. For Energy Storage Systems it keeps backup batteries at 100%, kicks-in during power-cuts and diverts excess (solar) power to self-consumption, saving you money. For RV and Emergency vehicles it keeps vital systems function flawlessly. But that’s just to name a few...

Notes:
- For more detailed information about the Cerbo GX and the GX Touch, please visit the Victron GX product range page at Victron live
- DIN rail mounting requires an additional accessory purchased separately - DIN35 Adapter.
- The listed maximum in the above table is the total of connected VE.Direct devices such as MPPT Solar Charge controllers. 'Total' means all directly connected devices plus the devices connected over USB. The limit is mostly bound by CPU processing power. Note that there is also a limit to the number of other types of devices, of which often multiple are connected: PV Inverters. Up to three or four three-phase inverters can typically be monitored on a Cerbo GX. Devices with a higher power CPU can monitor more.
- Bluetooth functionality is intended to be used to assist with initial connection and networking configuration. You cannot use Bluetooth to connect to other Victron products (e.g., SmartSolar charge controllers).
- In Cerbo GX hardware, there are two relays. Currently, Relay 1 can be used for programming as an alarm relay, generator start/stop, tank pump, temperature-controlled relay, or manual operation. Relay 2 is available for programming as a temperature-controlled relay or manual operation in the Relay menu of the GX (requires firmware 2.80 or higher).

Off-Grid and Backup
The presence of a functional electricity grid is not always as obvious as it would seem to be. An insufficient infrastructure is often the cause for an unreliable grid. Things become even more difficult when there is no grid at all. And yet you are in need of a reliable electricity supply. A local and properly functioning system is the only answer at this point. Victron Energy offers you such an answer. We are proud to offer you our modern translation for freedom and independence. Energy, Anytime, Anywhere

Energy Storage
As more solar and wind power comes on line, it becomes increasingly difficult and expensive, to ensure stability of the grid. Intermediate energy storage is therefore rapidly becoming an essential tool to keep power fluctuations on the grid within manageable limits. Moreover, as feed-in tariffs are decreasing, the business case for a home energy storage system that increases self-consumption becomes more solid every day. Intermediate energy storage increases self-consumption of harvested solar and/or wind power. The natural next step is 100% self-consumption and independence from the grid.
