Change VRM to Fahrenheit

My color control is set to Fahrenheit but VRM only displays Celsius. Anyone know how to change this?

Hi @mattjackson86

You can adjust the VRM preference between celsius and Fahrenheit in your user profile - here is a direct link - https://vrm.victronenergy.com/profile/appearance

Note - there is a known limitation where notification emails still show celsius - fixing that is still on the to-do list.

You can now change VRM to Fahrenheit. You can set it from your profile settings

The option is there but it doesnt seem to work. It would also be nice to change the clock. Weird these arent options on the Cerbo or through VRM but work fine with the app.

@Machined what exactly is not working for you?

You can change the timezone on the Cerbo through remote console, the local network or a display attached to it.

The change to Fahrenheit works now on the website since posting the comment. The timezone is fine but it would be nice to have a 12h clock instead of a 24h.


It would also be nice to have both of these features on the Cerbo itself. In the US, only former military use 24 hour clocks. 99% of us use Fahrenheit and 12 hour clocks. So its awkward to read everything at a glance.

Works for me. I think I had to log out/in to get it to update.

I was able to change the temp to Fahrenheit in the app but it still shows Celsius when I log in from my computer. I'm not finding where I can change it to F from my computer.

@mattjackson86 WOW ! big time thanx. Even with your graphic showing where to set this, I had issues finding that screen; I don't recall ever visiting that page. Thanx for sharing the exact solution.
