VICTRON ENERGY – VE.Bus Smart dongle
R 1,171,30
VE.Bus Smart dongle
The VE.Bus Smart dongle is two products in one:
First of all, it is the Bluetooth accessory for our range of inverter/chargers: Multis, MultiPlusses, MultiPlus-II, MultiGrid, MultiGrid-II, Quattros, and our series of Phoenix Inverters with a VE.Bus port. When installed, use the VictronConnect App to monitor operation and also operate the system: change the input current limit as well as switch between Off, On, and Charger-only modes.
Secondly, it can work as a Voltage- and Temperature-sense device for the inverter/charger. This works with all models.
For monitoring, the device is a great alternative in caravans, smaller yachts, and motor homes for which the Color Control GX or Venus GX is a step too far.

The dongle has the following features and functionalities:
-The dongle can remotely control the inverter/charger via Bluetooth and the VictronConnect app. The inverter/charger can be
switched to on, off, or charger-only and the AC input current limit can be adjusted.
– The dongle can remotely monitor the inverter/charger via Bluetooth and the VictronConnect app. The AC and DC parameters, device status, warnings, or alarms can be monitored.
-The dongle can be connected to a single inverter/charger or multiple inverter/chargers set up in parallel and 3-phase.
– The dongle measures the battery temperature and voltage.
– The dongle can act as a battery temperature and voltage sensor for an inverter/charger and/or for VE. Smart Networking.
– The dongle can be connected to an external temperature sensor, rather than its own (default) temperature sensor.
What’s in the box
-VE.Bus Smart Dongle.
– Removable terminal block with screw terminals.
-Black battery (-) connection wire with 10mm eye terminal.
-Red battery ( ) connection wire with 10mm eye terminal and inline fuse.
What’s not in the box
-Temperature sensor for BMV-712 Smart and BMV-702. This temperature sensor can be used as an optional external temperature sensor. Note that the temperature sensor is shipped with the label “CAUTION: BMV702 only!”. This caution can be ignored for use with the VE.Bus Smart dongle.
-UTP RJ45 cable. This cable is required to connect the VE.Bus Smart Dongle to the inverter/charger or inverter. This cable needs to be purchased separately.
