This leads to the multiplus having 2 entries on the controlls.


Is there any way to fix this.

I have the same problem. Even when I delete the #289 Multiplus in the device list, it is still shown in the dashbord control.

I have the same problem with a Multiplus 2 5000, which is displayed once with VRM-ID289 and once with ID290.

The Multiplus is actually always detected with ID289, I could see after reboot my Pi4 with Venus OS v2.92 though. That the Multiplus 2 also once with the ID290 been recognized, after a reboot was then again ID289.

In the VRM portal, I could then delete the Multiplus with ID290, but not from the "Realitime" list.

I have an similiar issue, but not yet seen a solution above.

I have set up my initial Home PV system (if needed, see details below in German), and it runs quite OK as an ESS system.

What I am wondering: in advanced VRM, 2 instances appear for VE.Bus and serial battery, and after reboot of the Pi running Venus OS v2.92, either one (e.g. 289) or the other one (288) is active:

This results in the need to have 2 widgets in VRM to show he actual data in either the one or the other:

==> how can I ensure that for VE.Bus and serial battery only 1 instance is used, consistently?


FYI my setup:

victron Multiplus 48/5000, über MK3 USB am "Cerbo", ESS und DVCC aktiv
