More info

The Victron VE.Net GMDSS Panel is specifically designed to remotely monitor and display the status of Victron's Skylla-TG 24/30 GMDSS and Skylla-TG 24/50 GMDSS battery chargers in marine applications that fall under the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) regulations.  

Here's a breakdown of its key uses:

GMDSS Compliance: The primary purpose of this panel is to fulfill the monitoring and alarm requirements mandated by the GMDSS for battery chargers used in safety-critical marine communication systems.  
Remote Monitoring: Since the GMDSS charger is often located away from the main control station of a vessel, the VE.Net GMDSS Panel allows for convenient remote monitoring of its essential parameters.
Displaying Critical Data: The panel provides a clear digital readout of important information from the connected Skylla-TG GMDSS charger, which can include:  
Charging status
Battery voltage and current  
Alarms (e.g., low voltage, high voltage, charger fault)  
Alarm Indication: It features built-in visual and potentially audible alarms to alert the crew to any issues with the GMDSS battery system, ensuring the reliability of distress and safety communications.  
Battery Monitoring: The panel often provides information about the connected battery itself, such as its state of charge and, in some cases, even an estimated "time to go" in case of a power blackout.  

User-Friendly Interface: The panel is designed to be easy to operate, with a simple menu that allows for checking status and potentially adjusting settings if needed (though the GMDSS functionality is typically pre-programmed).  

Easy Installation: It connects to the compatible Skylla-TG GMDSS charger using a standard 8-wire UTP cable, simplifying the installation process.  
In essence, the Victron VE.Net GMDSS Panel acts as a dedicated remote interface for specific Victron battery chargers used in GMDSS-equipped vessels, ensuring that the crucial power source for safety communications is reliably monitored and any potential issues are promptly indicated.
