Victron VE.Bus Smart dongle

Victron VE.Bus Smart Dongle

Intelligent Bluetooth VE.Bus interface with temperature and battery voltage sensor. Communicates system information directly to your smartphone (VictronConnect app).

VE.Bus Smart Dongle is a VE.Bus - Bluetooth interface with temperature and battery voltage sensor function. It allows you to monitor system information directly on your smartphone using the free VictronConnect app. When used with inverters/chargers, the dongle provides battery voltage and temperature information and allows charging compensation. For MultiPlus-II models, the dongle is currently the only way to monitor battery data.

The dongle can be used with and without GX systems (Cerbo GX, Venus GX/CCGX, etc.). In this case, the dongle provides up-to-date information via the VictronConnect interface and further allows firmware updates without the use of the Internet. When the dongle is used in non-GX systems, the voltage data is the primary source of information for other devices and charge compensation. The VE.Bus Smart Dongle can also be part of a VE.Smart network.

VE.Bus Smart Dongle is able to receive temperature data in two ways: The dongle is mounted directly on the battery case (using an adhesive) and the battery temperature is read directly from the battery case. However, more accurate battery temperature sensing is available with an optional battery-mounted sensor. If the sensor is connected, the Dongle will automatically detect it and use the temperature readings directly from the sensor.
