Connecting Bluetooth devices to Cerbo-GX

Hi,

I'd like to upgrade my mobile-home with a cerbo-gx, right now I use a "dedicated" smartphone to monitor all my devices, but ofc this isn't really satisfactory.

But, all the devices are distributed wildly inside my RV, I wouldn't want to put in a lot of ve-direct cables to monitor them, all devices have bluetooth, the Cerbo has Bluetooth.


So, when will Victron make an update for the Cerbo that fully enables the Bluetooth capabilities ?

In the manual of the Cerbo GX you can find a list of the ruuvi Bluetooth sensors.
Anyway which type of present sensors you are using?
With some mor einformation possible more help is possible.

It's nice to see that Victron supports Bluetooth sensors from third parties, but what I (we?) need is Bluetooth support for MPPT, BMV etc. i.e. the "VE-direct" devices to eliminate a wiring chaos.
