Color Control GX
The Color Control (CCGX) provides intuitive control and monitoring for all products connected to it. The list of Victron products that can be connected is endless: inverters, Multis, Quattros, all our latest MPPT solar chargers, BMV-700, BMV-600, Lynx Ion + Shunt and more.
VRM Online Portal
Besides monitoring and controlling products on the CCGX, the information is also forwarded to Victron's free remote monitoring website: the VRM Online Portal. To get an impression of the VRM Online Portal, visit https://vrm.victronenergy.com, and try the demo.
Future functionality
The Color Control GX has endless expansion possibilities. To implement all our ideas and wishes will take years, and there are many features that are not yet available. Functions marked with ‘Future function’ will become available later on, as a firmware update. Firmware updates are always free of charge, as with all Victron products. Updating the product is easy: the Color Control GX will update itself automatically as long as it is connected to the internet. Manual updates can be done with a USB stick and microSD cards.
Supported products

Note that there are more options for products which use the VE.Direct ports, such as BMVs and small MPPTs. They can also be connected through USB, useful when more than two products need to be connected. Use an off-the-shelf USB-hub, and the VE.Direct to USB interface.
