Managing VE Smart network remotely with Victron Connect

I noticed the smart network menu is not available in my smartsolar MPPTs. Never needed it until a technician installed a Smart Sense on a site but forgot to set the smart network up... a site in a island :(

We have a GX device just for monitoring purposes and change MPPT charge profile if needed. Can we set the VE.Smart Network with the Smart Sense, remotely?

Hi @Elimac,

unfortunately this is not possible remotely. You respectively the VictronConnect app needs to be in bluetooth distance to the device, in your case the Smart Battery Sense to setup VE.Smart Networking.
