I’d be grateful for some advice. I have a Cerbo GX (running v3.30) on a totally Victron system on our yacht. I use the Remote Console to monitor the system via the LAN on 192.168.0.100. Recently the access has become erratic: for days at a time there will be no problem, then I’ll lose access for se…

Hi @Farbrook , Sorry, I meant on VRM, like here: [IMG_0863] Can you see that? The system that this is about is EVANGELINE, right? Is the Cerbo connected to the network using Wifi? Check the signal, reception should be at least 50% for a continuously reliable connection. (Wiring it up to the LA…

Are the connections all wired or wireless? You’re on a fairly dated version now, so not like any new bugs could have been introduced. Any chance the device is overheating?

Thanks for your response Nick. Yes, all wired; only remote console via wireless. It’s in a compartment with the batteries which report being at 34 deg C…so not cool but I wouldn’t have thought overheating territory.

If your console access is over wifi, then that is the most obvious cause. You can ssh in and check the logs. At 34 ambient it might have an issue, which should be logged. Only speculating.

Thanks for the suggestion Nick, but I checked the logs and nothing abnormal there.

Furthermore, I’ve been looking at updating the firmware which I believe can be done via Settings > Firmware > Online updates…however under settings I see only ‘Network’ (see attached image). [Screenshot 2025-07-09 at 17.32.12]

Hi Simon, You can update your devices via VRM by Selecting - Device List - Firmware Update. The system scans your attached devices and after the scan displays all devices with their current installed firmware versions as well as any updates which you can select and update. Hope this helps I manage …

Many thanks for your suggestion, but I’m unable to access ‘Firmware update’ - the option doesn’t appear (see attached image). Any suggestions? [Screenshot 2025-07-10 at 12.07.44]

Hi, @Farbrook , to update your GX, get into Remote Console and there go to Settings → General → Firmware. Latest official version at the moment is v3.63. For details of recent features, see public - Venus OS v3.60 Release - Google Slides . Try the new UI, also remotely. In case you have installed …

Many thanks Matthijs, I was being rather dim!

I’ve updated the firmware and can now access Remote Console normally.

Thank you for your help.
