Philippi Smart Interface SMI
The Philippi Smart Interface SMI is a communication interface for connecting to the P-BUS via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. It transmits onboard system data such as battery status, chargers and tank levels in real time to the free philippi app for smartphones and tablets. A Micro-SD card slot also enables long-term data recording.
Key Features
-
Remote monitoring of the onboard electrical system – keep an eye on your system remotely, for example while your vehicle or boat is stored during the winter or while anchored overnight.
-
Battery history at a glance – quickly identify deep discharges or overcharging that occurred over the past hours or days.
-
Connection to a Victron MultiPlus inverter/charger – via the integrated RS232 interface in combination with the Victron MK2 interface.
-
Two LIN bus interfaces – for direct communication with the SHE shunt and other LIN- or CI-BUS-compatible devices.
The Philippi Smart Interface SMI can be easily integrated into an existing P-BUS network and connected using the supplied M12 T-cable. Power is supplied via screw terminals connected to the DC onboard power system.
The SMI is particularly suitable for owners of motorhomes, caravans, yachts and boats who want to monitor their onboard electrical system even when they are not physically on board.
