BLOC 8 v2

The BLOC 8 v2 is the MUXEN power-output module: the box that switches the boat's circuits. Eight outputs, each with its own current measurement, plus dry-contact inputs and analog inputs — and a local front panel that labels the outputs and switches them by hand.

This page is the product data. What the box does is decided by the firmware loaded into it — see the BLOC 8 v2 overview for the catalogue, and the power module manual for wiring and commissioning.

WARNING

A BLOC 8 switches load. Before wiring anything, read what the power module manual says about the life of an output — what a factory-fresh module does to its outputs, what each one takes at startup once addressed, and what a voltage fault, an overcurrent or a firmware update does to it.
