Connect MPPT 15/75 to Smart shunt via VE-cable

I just installed a smart shunt and MPPT 15/75. However I can only find the smart shunt on Bluetooth. The MPPT don’t show up on my iPhone.

Perhaps my version of MPPT lacks Bluetooth?

I have a VE cable, can I connect the two units to monitor the MPPT as well ?

Hi @tobbeg, welcome to the Community!

Your MPPT is not bluetooth-enabled (SmartSolar); you cannot connect it to the SmartShunt, that's not what the VE.Direct port is for unfortunately. You can, however, connect a VE.Direct Bluetooth Dongle to your BlueSolar MPPT to get access to it over bluetooth.
