andreapellegrin asked Apr 18, '23

Hi all,

I was wondering if I should buy a USB - VE.direct cable for each victron accessory I have.

Now I have:

SmartSolar charge controller MPPT 100 | 50

MultiPlus Compact 24V | 2000VA | 50A

Battery monitor BMV-700

And so far I have only connected the MPPT to my Pi.

Thank you

Venus OS VE.Direct

To connect the inverter to the Pi, you need the mk3 adaptor and a network cable. And the other stuff like the BMV, use the ve direct to usb.
