Node RED on CCGX

Modifications

I have CCGX installation I want to enhance with Node-RED capabilities. What I was considering:
1/ Change CCGX for Ekrano or Cerbo.

  • Suprisingly impossible at my place, because all three possible displays (Ekrano, Touch 50,70) are wider than original CCGX, which sits in nice handmade glass panel with lighting buttons :frowning:

2/ Add Raspberry Pi with Node-RED
I can point Victron nodes to dbus and use them, but AFAIK I will not have the VRM tunnel to it and cannot use dashboard remotely (unless I built another tunnel)

3/ Add Raspberry Pi (or Cerbo) with Venus OS and point Victron nodes to CCGX dbus
Supposedly will not work, and I will have actually “two” installations on VRM …??

I am missing something?

Thanks for any ideas.
