Simarine Caravan Control VIA
The Simarine Caravan Control VIA set consists of the SCC8 display element and the SPDU-52 control unit. The caravan panel can monitor up to 6 batteries, 14 tank sensors, 14 temperature sensors and 20 independent current sensors (shunts), as well as control 2 relay switches. It is equipped with a Wi-Fi module to communicate with the app available for Android™ and iPhone® smartphones. The app enables access to live data, historical data, analysis functions, as well as configuration and updating of the panel.
SCC8 display panel
The information is displayed on a large 3.5" high-resolution IPS display with Gorilla® glass and anti-reflective coating to ensure better visibility. The device comes with 8 control buttons that can be used to conveniently control all connected devices.
The menu navigation is transparent and easy to use. All changes can be made using four touch buttons under the screen. The required installation space behind the housing is 30mm.

SPDU-52 power distribution unit
The Simarine SPDU-52 power distribution unit is a very versatile module. Its purpose is to supply other modules and shunts used by the Caravan Panel. Up to 6 batteries, 24 shunts, 10 temperature sensors, 14 tank level sensors and 2 inclination sensors can be connected to the SPDU-52 with additional modules.
The SPDU-52 has 3 SICOM ports, two for additional power outputs inputs/outputs (SICOM 1, SICOM 2) and one for the caravan panel (SiCOM PANEL). It also has 4 channels (solar, charger, main battery, starter battery) that measure the current.
The voltage measurement on each of these channels is 0-35 VDC with an accuracy of ±0.5%. The resistance measurement on each of these channels is 0-65 kOhm with an accuracy of ±3%.
PLEASE NOTE: Install the power pack in a clean and dry place, protected from accidental spillage of liquids. For further information on installation and wiring, please refer to the manual.
Mobile APP of the Caravan Control
You can control your Caravan Panel remotely with your smartphone via the WLAN connection. You can use the app to monitor current (live) data from batteries, tanks, thermometers and barographs. You can also change the Caravan Panel settings on your smartphone and easily update the Simarine firmware to a new version as soon as it is available.
With the mobile app, current Caravan Control settings can be saved and restored later. In addition, automatic backups of the current settings are made as soon as they are changed. These settings are saved in a list and can be restored at any time.
