Cerbo GX and BMV-702 Bluetooth Dongle

I currently have a BMV-702 and would like to keep the display in it's present location and connect it to my new Cerbo GX. I can not get a V.E. direct cable to it but do have an extra bluetooth dongle which I could connect. With the bluetooth dongle on the back of the BMV-702 display will that connect OK with the Cerbo. Documentation on doing this is a bit sparse. I have thought about ditching the BMV-702 and getting a Smart Shunt but then I would have a useless hole in the galley of my Airstream.

You need a wired VE.direct connection from the BMV to the Cerbo.

Thanks, was afraid that was the case. I will go ahead and get a Smart Shunt for my install and ditch the display.
