Hello,
My smart dongle shows an Unknown state (vs Sustain). It reports correctly (Sustain) in after disconnecting the cerbo gx.
2x MP II 2750 in parallel
Venus os 3.55 in the cerbo gx
How exactly are you connecting all these vebus systems, the gx and the dongle?
An RJ45 cable connects all the devices. Cerbo to MP to MP to Dongle.
Have a read of the “using with a GX” section of the dongle manual.
A GX device has priority over the dongle and should always be able to access all data. When power is applied to the dongle, or after a firmware update, the dongle will start up in background mode. The VE.Bus communication ports will be monitored for 30 seconds. If no GX device is detected, the dongle will switch to primary mode, and all supported data will be available. While switching modes, VictronConnect will temporarily indicate an “unknown” VE.Bus state. The dongle continuously monitors the VE.Bus for GX device activity. It will switch itself to background mode as soon as a GX device is detected or changes to primary mode when a GX is not detected.
Yep, that’s the bug, the Unknown state is not temporary. This is something that worked before, but not sure what version OS broke it. Thanks!
