This is a long one, but, chapters below!

In this video, we use a Victron Cerbo GX to configure the Quattro using VE.Bus, not VE.Direct. We go over the OverkillSolarBMS configuration, and get everything connected and turned on for the first time! The batteries feed a 120v AC load, and we charge the batteries from the Quattro!

The sections covering the Cerbo GX and BMS (via the Xiaoxiang app) configurations are very much "Learn with me" format. You may wish to skip those sections if you just want to see the system working.

The last section of the video is a build of a panel to mount the GX Touch 50 display. I forgot to do my outro... Woops. :)

If you found this video from Victron's website, then I am absolutely certain you will love the videos "Off-Grid Garage" makes. Andy's videos go into a technical depth and does experimentation that is extremely insightful on energy generation and storage. His videos are what got me started on building this power system.
