Cerbo GX Bluetooth Not re-connecting

Cerbo GX running v3.01. Also have SmartSolar Charger MPPT 150/45, SmartShunt 500A and Quattro 48/5000/70-2x100 120V.

System running fine. Setup done. Changed PIN code. All is good.

THEN not sure what triggered disconnect from Bluetooth but, in VictronConnect, I get:

The other "smart" devices devices are still visible, showing data and I can connect to them. Cerbo is visible and gray. I am the only phone. When I try to connect to it, I get the above message.


I have tried:

1) toggling airplane mode. Does nothing.

2) "Forgetting" Cerbo on Phone.

3) Restarting phone.

4) Power cycling Cerbo. It tries to connect...it prompts for PIN, but then fails with the above.

Sometimes when they get hot the BT gets a bit patchy for some serial numbers. HQ2207 and older.

You should be connecting by the hotspot now anyway for the remote console of your setup is done.

You can cycle the wifi on and off it also switches the BT on and off.
