Detailed description

Veevõtmeks seadmetele, millel puudub sisse ehitatud Bluetooth, on VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle mõeldud võimaldamaks juhtimist ilma juhtmeühenduseta läbi VictronConnect rakenduse. See adapter muudab iga Victron seadme, millel on VE.Directi liides (peale GX või GlobalLink seadmete), juhitavaks iOS-, Android- või macOS-seadmetelt. See võimaldab lihtsustatud jälgimist, seadistamist ja püsivara uuendamist, mis on olulised efektiivse pardal energia süsteemi haldamiseks.

Omadused ja ühilduvus

Dongle pakub järgmisi põhiomadusi: juurdepääs mitte-ära nutikatele seadmetele (aku seisundi, päikesepaneeli võimsuse andmed) ja juhtmevaba kommunikatsiooni võrgu VE.Smart Networking. See võimaldab ka kiiret andmete kuvamist (Instant Readout) peamiste andmete ja hoiatuste vaatamiseks otse VictronConnecti seadmete nimekirjas (vajab firmware 2.41 või uuemat). See seade on ühilduv laia valikuga Victron Energy toodetega, sealhulgas akumonitoor BMV 700 ja 702, inverterid Phoenix Inverter VE.Direct ja päikeseenergia regulaatorid BlueSolar MPPT. See ei toeta Windows PC-sid, sünkroonitud laadimist VE.Smart Networking kaudu, salvestatud tendentse, valikut "Keep SOC" akuseisundi lähtestamisel ega Bluetooth GATT teenust.

Paigaldus ja uuendamine

Dongle paigaldamine on lihtne: ühendage see seadmele sobiva VE.Directi liidese kaudu, mis toidab seda ka ise. Staatuse LED-id (sinine Bluetoothi jaoks, punane vigu näitamiseks) annavad selged märkused tema tööolukorrast ja uuendamise vajadusest. VictronConnect rakendus haldab automaatselt dongle püsivara uuendusi ja sageli ka ühendatud Victron seadme püsivara esmakordsel kasutamisel. See lahendus pakub ökonoomse ja praktilise alternatiivi olemasolevate seadmete moderniseerimiseks ilma funktsionaalsete seadmete asendamiseta.

Frequently asked questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Victron Energy VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle?

The VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is an adapter designed to extend the connectivity of Victron Energy devices without built-in Bluetooth. It enables wireless interaction with these products via the VictronConnect app, providing monitoring, configuration, and firmware update capabilities.

What are the main features offered by this dongle?

The main features of the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle include:

Wireless data visualization (battery status, solar panel power, etc.) on iOS, Android, and macOS mobile devices via the VictronConnect app.

The VE.Smart Networking wireless communication network between Victron products.

The 'Instant Readout' function that displays key data in the VictronConnect device list without requiring an active connection (requires firmware 2.41 or later).

Two status LEDs (blue for Bluetooth, red for errors).

A button to clear the PIN code.

Does the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle support firmware updates?

Yes, the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle supports updates to its own firmware. The VictronConnect app automatically handles these updates, particularly during the first connection. It is also possible to check and manually update the firmware via the product information screen in the app.

What is the difference between the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle and the older VE.Direct to Bluetooth LE dongle?

There is no functional or technical difference between the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle and the older VE.Direct to Bluetooth LE dongle. Only the name has changed from 'LE' to 'Smart'. Both devices offer the same features.

How to tell if the dongle is ready to connect or already connected?

The dongle uses status LEDs to indicate its state:

If the blue LED is blinking slowly, the dongle is ready for Bluetooth connection. If the blue LED stays solidly lit, the Bluetooth interface is successfully connected to the VictronConnect app.

Is it possible to view Victron product data without establishing an active connection to the dongle?

Yes, thanks to the «Bluetooth Live Data Advertisement» feature. If the dongle firmware is version 2.41 or later, this option can be enabled to display key product data directly in the VictronConnect app device list without needing an active connection to the dongle.

Does the dongle have a button to reset the PIN code?

Yes, the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is equipped with a button to clear the PIN code. This can be useful if you forget it or need to reset the access security.

With which types of Victron Energy products is the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle compatible?

The dongle is compatible with nearly all Victron Energy products equipped with a VE.Direct port and that do not have built-in Bluetooth. Examples of compatible products include the BMV 700 and 702 battery monitors, Phoenix Inverter VE.Direct inverters, and BlueSolar MPPT solar charge controllers.

Can the dongle be used with Victron GX or GlobalLink devices?

No, the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is not compatible with Victron Energy GX or GlobalLink devices. It is specifically designed for Victron products that do not have built-in Bluetooth and feature a VE.Direct port.

Which operating systems are supported by the VictronConnect application to use the dongle?

The VictronConnect application, required to interact with the dongle, is compatible with iOS (for iPhone/iPad), Android (for smartphones/tablets), and macOS (for Apple computers).

Is the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle compatible with Windows computers?

No, the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is not compatible with Windows computers. The VictronConnect app connects via this dongle with iOS, Android, and macOS.

Does the VE.Smart Networking allow synchronized charging between multiple devices?

No, although the dongle supports VE.Smart Networking for wireless communication between Victron products, synchronized charging is not a feature supported by this network.

Does the dongle allow viewing stored data trends from Victron devices?

No, the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle does not support displaying stored data trends. It enables real-time monitoring and access to current device data.

Is the "Keep SOC" option supported for setting the battery SOC on reset?

No, the « Keep SOC » option for resetting the battery's state of charge (SOC) setting is not supported by the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle.

Can the VE.Direct cable of the dongle be extended?

No, it is not possible to extend the 1.5-meter VE.Direct cable supplied with the dongle. It must be connected directly to the VE.Direct port of the compatible device.

How is the dongle powered?

The VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is powered directly by the Victron Energy product it is connected to via the VE.Direct port. It does not require a separate external power supply.

What happens if a firmware update is required during the first installation?

If a firmware update is required during the first installation, the dongle’s blue and red LEDs will flash alternately in quick succession. The VictronConnect app will automatically detect this requirement and initiate the firmware update once the connection is established.

How to enable the « Bluetooth Live Data Advertisement » function after installation?

To enable the « Bluetooth Live Data Advertisement » function (requires firmware v2.41 or later):

Open the VictronConnect app and tap the VE.Direct dongle to open it. Go to the « Product info » page. Scroll to the bottom of the page and use the slider to turn Bluetooth live data advertising on or off.

What do the LEDs indicate if the dongle has a VE.Direct communication issue?

If the blue LED is continuously lit and the red LED is also continuously lit, this indicates a VE.Direct communication issue. In this case, only the dongle itself can be updated in VictronConnect. If both LEDs are blinking slowly, this also indicates a VE.Direct communication issue, and the dongle will only advertise itself; the connected device will not be visible in VictronConnect.

Which Victron Energy products is the VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle compatible with?

The VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle is designed to connect to most Victron Energy products equipped with an integrated VE.Direct port. It adds Bluetooth connectivity to these devices for monitoring, configuration, and software updates via the VictronConnect app.

Compatible products include:

The BMV 700 and BMV 702 battery monitorsThe Phoenix Inverter VE.Direct invertersThe BlueSolar MPPT solar charge controllersNote that the dongle is not compatible with Victron Energy GX-type devices or GlobalLink products.
