We have a global link 520 connected to a Bluesolar 100/50 controller via the VE Direct cable. When go onto VRM to find the device, there is no device available. Even though the lights are blinking green and yellow which indicates that 1x device is connected. Anybody have thouights on why the MPPT can't be found?
We have tried to power off and on, and also tried a different ve direct cable.....
Solar charger is working fine.
Hi,
Can you connect to the globallink using VictronConnect on a phone or tablet?
Kind regards,
Thiemo van Engelen
Thanks @Thiemo van Engelen (Victron Energy staff) for the reply. We can connect to the Global link, but cannot find the MPPT in device list. The Global link has the lights blinking to say that there is one device connected to it....
Hello, I'm new to forums, and have a similar question. In my case the GL520 shows no devices in VRM, although the local Blue Tooth network onboard already includes SmartSolar 75/15, Orion Smart, BSC IIP22 12/30 shore charger and BMV702. These all appear as local devices along with the GL520 on the Victron connect app on iPhone etc. I can find no way to "add" devices to the VRM portal. Logging into VRM via the web I see just the default voltage readout from the GL520 itself, no data from other devices. I feel I have missed a setup step, but the manual is no help on this point. Ideas? TIA
If you are using VE.Direct the devices should automatically appear in VRM. If not you can try to power cycle the GL520 as it sends some data every 24 hours and at first boot and other data every 15 minutes.
