My Multiplus installed in my boat has the control panel that is mounted in my berth and has the 3 LEDs. This does not provide much information. I am looking for options to provide more information such as battery voltage, current, settings, etc on either my phone or my chartplotter display. I know their are several options like a dongle for bluetooth and USB. Does anyone have any specific advice for me to speed my research into what to implement? I would like to be able to hook it into the NMEA2000 also and set it up in my chart plotter to monitor. Its a Garmin 7xxx series.
Hi Steve.
You don’t mention what other Victron kit you may have, but to do this properly you’ll likely need to step up to (say) a Cerbo GX to get it all together. Research you’ll need to understand even a little about where to head. Maybe this as a start point… 13. Marine MFD integration by App
There’s a few links within that you could chase up, and the Victron website has a lot of stuff too.
I have only the Multiplus Compact Inverter Charger and the Control Panel that lets me switch from Charge only/Off/ Inverter. At least as far as I know. I have not had the boat that long and until having issues caused by the 2 Hurricanes we just had, have not really dug in to get to know the system other than to use it.
