Android victron connect - remote ve.configure. Where does it look for files?

I used remote ve.configure on vrm to download the settings for my multiplus. The download file was placed in downloads. When I run ve connect, it does not see it in the settings library, nor is there a way to browse. Where is ve connect looking for the files?


Ve connect also does not appear registered for that file type, so clicking on it doesn't bring up the app.

You need VE.config to open and configure the file.

Thanks,

All the Android links point to ve Connect.

On the second link, nothing seems active, as if there was no android version?

For now remote VE.configure requires VE.configure, which is a Windows app.

Thank you, that's what I feared. I'll go track down a windows computer. I'm also trying to see if I can get veConfigure working in wine, since it doesn't need USB access in this case.
