So here’s the question
I have a raspberry pi running Venus with the 7inch touchscreen and have connected a smart Bmw 712 and a 100/50 mppt both are smart
now I also have a smart ip21 30 amp charger and a victron Orion smart 12-12/50 charger
I now nee all my use as dc usage
400 amp of lithium 12 volt and a 4000 watt inverter (not victron)
Can I change settings so the display shows me the ac usage with a sensor or use a Bluetooth dongle for the other chargers ?
so there is no way ?
cant i ajust the screen then to not see all the things i dont have ?
I'm running a Pi too - Best guess it will be within the Web Application - i.e. the Themes, etc. (it is really just a html5 web app)
they are all accessible by logging into the Pi via SSH (or on console if you have a screen and keyboard connected, but I haven't investigated where to change anything significant like removing unwanted widgets.
That said - the Venus gets it's AC usage by being connected to a Multi - so I doubt you could get AC Usage from a Non Victron product (Fronius excluded.)
Further to that, Victron do have an AC Current sensor designed for a PV Inverter, but in the end it only has a single cable which plugs into the AUX port of a Multi or Quatro, so really the same deal...
The AC Current sensor is a simple external current sensor used to measure AC Current, Power (VA) and calculate energy of a PV Inverter connected to the AC input or output of a Multi or Quattro. These values can then be displayed and sent to the VRM-website by the Color Control. The two measurement wires can be connected to the AUX and/or temperature sense input of a Multi or Quattro.
