3 MASTERBUS
3.1 WHAT IS MASTERBUS?
All devices that are suitable for
MasterBus are marked by the MasterBus
symbol.
MasterBus is a fully decentralized data network for
communication between the different Mastervolt
system devices. The communication network is
based on CAN-bus which has proven a reliable bus-
system in automotive applications. MasterBus is
used as power management system for all
connected devices, such as the inverter, battery
charger, generator and many more. This gives the
possibility for communication between the connected
devices, for instance to start the generator when the
batteries are low.
MasterBus reduces complexity of electrical systems
by using MasterBus cables. All system components
are simply chained together. Therefore each device
is equipped with two MasterBus data ports. When
two or more devices are connected to each other
through these data ports, they form a local data
network, called the MasterBus. The results are a
reduction of material costs as only a few electrical
cables are needed and less installation time.
For central monitoring and control of the connected
devices Mastervolt offers a wide range of panels
which show full status information of your electrical
system at a glance and a push of a button. Example
is the full colour MasterView System panel. All
monitoring panels can be used for monitoring,
control and configuration of all connected MasterBus
equipment.
New devices can be added to the existing network in
a very easy way by just extending the network. This
gives the MasterBus network a high degree of
flexibility for extended system configuration, not only
today, but in the future as well!
Mastervolt also offers several interfaces, making
even non-MasterBus devices suitable to operate in
the MasterBus network.
For direct communication between the MasterBus
network and a product which is not from Mastervolt,
the Modbus interface is recommended.
CAUTION: Never connect a non-
MasterBus device to the MasterBus
network directly! This will void warranty of
all MasterBus devices connected.
3.2 EVENT BASED COMMANDS
With MasterBus each device can be programmed to
initiate an action at an other connected device. This
is done by means of event based commands.
Example: if the shore power is almost in overload, a
generator must be started.
As the shore power is measured by the Mass
Systemswitch, this device is considered as the
command source. The generator is the device that
should initiate an action (start the generator), and is
therefore considered to be the target. This means
that the Mass Systemswitch must be programmed
as follows:
Event source: Shore pre overload Select from list of events sources
(see manual of the Mass Systemswitch)
Event target: Generator Select from the device list (devices connected to the
MasterBus)
Event command: Status Select event command from the list of event commands of
the target (see manual of the Generator)
Event data: On Select event action from the list of event commands of the
target (see manual of the Generator)
See chapter 6 for the MasterView easy list of event sources and list of event commands.

EN / MasterView Easy MkII / September 2010 7
3.3 HOW TO SET UP A MASTERBUS
NETWORK
Every device that is suitable for the MasterBus
network is equipped with two data ports. When two
or more devices are connected using these ports,
together they form a local data network, called the
MasterBus.
Keep the following rules in mind:
Figure 2
Figure 3
Figure 4
Figure 5
Figure 6
Do not make T-connections in the network.
Do not make ring networks.
The electric power for the network comes from
the connected devices.
At least one device in the network should have
powering capabilities (see specifications).
One powering device can power up to three non-
powering devices.
As all powering devices are galvanically isolated,
multiple powering devices are allowed.
OK
As with all high speed data networks, MasterBus
needs a terminating device on both ends of the
network .

Connections between the devices are made by

Figure 12 shows an example of Input (pulses) and
Output (data) to explain the Event Data.
On changes the status to On at the first signal.
Off changes the status to Off at the first signal.
Copy lets the status follow the input.
Copy Invert lets the status follow the opposite of the
input. Copy is used for dimming too by holding the
pulse switch pressed for a longer time.
Toggle changes the status at the first signal and
back at the second signal. It is used in combination
with a pulse switch.
6.5 FOLLOW THE TOGGLE LEADER
If two or more targets of the MasterView Easy MkII
are configured for one toggle switch, the first event
for this switch is the leading toggle event. The other
events are the following toggle events. They borrow
their state from the leading event.
Example: Event 4 is the leading event. The states of
event 4,5,6 are 0,1,1 respectively. Operating the
toggle switch results in state 1for event 4 (toggled
from 0). Event 5 and 6 borrow state 1from event 4,
so the event states are now 1,1,1 respectively.
6.6 FAVOURITE + CONTROL PAGE
The MasterView Easy MkII Favourites page is
designed to monitor the other connected MasterBus
devices in one overview.
This page shows up to 6 monitoring items on one
screen. An example of a monitoring item is the
Battery State of Charge, measured by the
MasterShunt. These items are selectable from the
monitoring tabs of connected MasterBus devices.
For configuration, using the MasterAdjust
or System Panel software is necessary to
recognize the group and item numbers.

NOTE: The Favourites page appears
automatically after 20 seconds when the
MasterView Easy panel is in the start up
screen (device list). This only happens
when you actually configured the
Favourites page.
See figure 15. The item selected is being shown
under Connected favor. The Area 1 device is the
MSH MasterShunt. The 1 under Area 1 is the Index.
It shows the item you added is available and the
connection with the device is present. You can
check the index by selecting the menu of the
according device and mouse over the item (in this
example the MSH MasterShunt: group 1 is
Monitoring and item 1 is the State of Charge).
NOTE: If you want to change the item to
be displayed in an area, reconfiguring that
area is possible.
Figure 15: Favourites page configuration
6.7 CONFIGURING OTHER DEVICES
Monitoring and configuring other devices is possible
by selecting a device in the MasterView Easy device
list, see section 6.1. Refer to the user’s manual of
the connected device for an overview of all available
settings. Settings are stored in the memory of the
selected device. This means that switching off or
disconnecting of the MasterView Easy will not affect
the settings of the connected devices. See section
6.2 for the Configuration Lock of all connected
devices.
6.8 DIGITAL SWITCHES
The MasterView Easy MkII features 6 digital
switches to be used in the Favourites page. Their
function is based on event configuration of mainly
other devices. The switches, named Switch 1 to 6,
can be renamed after their application, see figure 16.
An example is Switch 1, named Kitchen.
The switches are in the Easy Monitoring screen
basically to add them to the Favourites page, see
figure 13.

To have a switch really control a channel on the

configuration. Figure 17 shows how to let the switch
called “Kitchen” control channel 6 of the Digital DC.
Now, Kitchen on the Favourites page (see figure 19)
toggle switches channel 6.
6.8.2 Feedback configuration
Only switches of the MasterView Easy itself can
show feedback information on its Favourites page.
See figure 18. For instance Kitchen is Event
configured to toggle switch channel 6 of the Digital
DC 10x10A. The Digital DC can be Event configured
to send a feedback signal to Kitchen if it is really
switched On. The “LED” in Kitchen then turns black,
see figure 19. In case of alarm, it blinks.
NOTE: Only the MasterView Easy MkII
switches can be configured for the Easy
