BMV712 and ve.bus smart dongle network compatibility?

Hi all!

I'm just wondering if having the VE.bus smart dongle and the BMV712 on the same network can cause issues?

I'm particularly concerned about having both communicating the voltage to the network... At least they read the same value!


Also, is there any way of receiving and displaying the temperature sent by the dongle on the BMV display?


Thanks for your help!

At this moment the VE bus smart dongle is not compatible with smart networking.

Maybe possible in the future..

Sorry to disagree, but my VE.bus smart dongle v1.11 IS connected to my VE.smart networking, and says "transmitting battery voltage and temperature sense".

I hope this function remains, as it will allow me to quickly check the starter battery voltage on the BMV monitor, while transmitting the temperature to my mppts.

Your OP was incorrect? You can receive VE bus temp data on the BMV?
