1.2 A GX-device is required, eg Cerbo GX or Venus GX (VGX)
It is essential to use the CAN-bus connection of the GX device (e.g. Cerbo GX) - this communicates the
keep-alive signal, charge and discharge limits, error codes and state of charge (SOC %) between the
batteries and the system.
For new systems, the minimum required firmware version for the GX Device (e.g. Cerbo GX is v2.42. It
is highly recommended to use the latest firmware version on all connected devices, including the GX
device Inverter/Charger and MPPTs. There are regular updates to improve performance and reliability.
Legacy systems installed with v2.15 can continue to be used without upgrade as long as they do not
present any issues.
1.3 All Multi, MultiPlus, MultiGrid and Quattro are compatible
As long as you are using the appropriate model for the nominal battery voltage, all VE.Bus inverters
and inverter/chargers are compatible.
The minimum firmware version for new installations is 469. Though updating to the latest firmware is
recommended where possible, and a necessary first step when troubleshooting issues.
These inverter/charger units must be connected to the GX device via the VE.Bus connection port.
Legacy systems installed with VE.Bus firmware 422 can continue to be used without upgrade as long
as they do not present any issues.
1.4 All VE.Direct BlueSolar and SmartSolar MPPT Chargers are compatible
For proper operation, the Pylontech battery needs to be able to control the charge current. Therefor it
is recommended to use Victron 48V compatible MPPTs models with VE.Direct port for charging.
MPPTs with a VE.Direct port
MPPTs are controlled via the GX device. Make sure the GX device runs v2.15 or later, and the MPPTs
to 1.37 or the latest available version.
The MPPT requires connection to the GX device to regulate charge currents as the batteries require
(due to temperature, etc) To test operation, try disconnecting the GX device from the MPPT. After a
time-out, the MPPT will stop charging and flash an error code on its LEDs. The error code is error #67:
no BMS.
