At a single touch, Color Control GX provides an instant overview of your system: battery state of charge; present power consumption; power harvest from PV; power provision from mains/generators.
The full power of Victron Remote Management
Victron Remote Management (VRM) provides you with full access to the very extensive controls and settings of all system components which are connected to either your CCGX or Venus GX. It allows the remote user and installer login – in from anywhere, at any time. This powerful application also provides hassle-free diagnostic checks and analysis of archived information.
Color Control GX
The Color Control (CCGX) provides intuitive control and monitoring for all Victron power systems. The list of Victron products that can be connected is endless: Inverters, Multis, Quattros, MPPT solar chargers, BMV battery monitors, Lynx Ion Shunt and more.
Remote Console on VRM
Monitor, control, and configure the CCGX remotely, over the internet. Just like standing in front of the device, everything can also be done remotely. The same functionality is also available on the local network, Remote Console on LAN.
Automatic Genset start/stop
A highly customizable start/stop system. Use state of charge, voltage, load, and other parameters. Define a special set of rules for quiet times, and optionally a monthly test run.
The heart of ESS – Energy Storage System
The CCGX is the Energy Manager in an ESS system.
Data logging
When connected to the internet, all data is sent to the VRM Portal. When there is no internet connection available, the CCGX will store the data internally, for up to 48 hours. By inserting a micro SD card or USB stick, more data can be stored. These files can then be uploaded to the VRM Portal, or offline converted with the VictronConnect app, for analysis.
Supported products:
-Multis and Quattros, including split-phase and three-phase systems. Monitoring and control (on/off and current limiter). Changing configuration is possible (only remotely via the internet, not without an internet connection).
-BlueSolar MPPT Solar Chargers with a VE.Direct port.
-BlueSolar MPPT 150/70 and the MPPT 150/85 with VE.Can port. When multiple BlueSolar MPPTs with VE.Can are used in parallel, all information is combined as one.

-Fronius PV Inverters
When more than two VE.Direct products must be connected, and USB can be used.
Internet connection
The CCGX can be connected to the internet with an Ethernet cable and via Wi-Fi. To connect via Wi-Fi, a Wi-Fi USB accessory is required. The CCGX has no internal cellular modem: there is no slot for a sim card. Use an off-the-shelf GPRS or 3G router instead. See the blog post about 3G routers.
