VRM

Hi,
My VRM data displays 20kWh in the middle of the night 00:00, this mess upp the data over time.
Is it possible to edit the data on VRM? This must be wrong, there is nothing displayed in System - PV yield.

Hello

I'm new to Victron Energy devices and I have a Color Control GX. I'm looking for some help/tips.

1. What ports are used by the device to connect to the VRM Portal?

2. Where can I find the latest Firmware, if the device is not connectet to the Internet? I didn't find any Firmware on the Website.

3. I can connect to the CCGX by LAN. The Webinterface is working and I'm using the Webinterface in PRTG (iFramein Website) to display the status. After about 24h the Webinterface is not responding anymore and the CCGX has to reboot. If that happens, the CCGX is still reacting on Ping. Does anyone have a Idea, what to do?

Thank you

Regards

Mathias

Hi all,

I have a new system, Quattro with BYD Box Pro (with 2.5 batteries).

I was playing around in VRM portal with various alarms and one of them alarmed. Since I couldn't work out how to acknowledge the alarm I then went and deleted them all hoping that would stop it. And well.. no.

Any hints please?

DC system-overview widget........

make the 0 Watts line bold or a different colour,to make it stand out when low DC loads and solar input are fluctuating either side of the zero line for easier quick referencing!

Early last month I had gotten my site finally working with VRM Portal (once I finally got 24/7 internet there) and I had discovered the economic report functionality. While it doesn't give as much detail as I would like (I would hope for breakdown of used energy vs. max production if grid tied and selling, since production drops when batteries are full), I was eagerly awaiting digging into the reports at the start of this month once I had more data.

I had tried to check it a week or two ago and noticed that I still could not enter or select a date range, only "today". I was guessing that maybe there was an issue with database logs or something that would be temporary, but not today I still cannot select a start date beyond "today" or the automatically filled in date of yesterday. Both clicking the left arrow and trying to click any date except yesterday does not work.

Hi,

Would it be possible for Victron (in VRM) to under each "pie chart" in Dashboard - Solar display the total for each period (24h, 7w, 1m ad 1y)?

Kind Regards

I am experiencing issues with e-mail notifications in VRM.

The portal is working and I can see my installations and alarms associated with it.

My account is configured to receive e-mail notifications when certain alarms are triggered.

As of 17 December 2019, I have not received any alert e-mails though, despite there being alarms on my system.

I am not seeing any emails reach my mail server if I look at the mail logs on my mail server.

Portal access via andriod app is fine however windows login rejects me with a red 'Login Required' message! Any suggestions?

My Victron portal stopped updating this morning.

I rebooted all system, they all have inet access.

Removed power and rebooted

I turn ssh on/off, no changes.

Is there a way to keep the device numbers from changing if I am doing some maintenance on the configured devices? Right now its just annoying, but I can see that getting to be an issue in the future where there is history I want to keep in the portal. Thanks, Bill

Hello,

I wrote a very basic network device driver for CCGX that parses NMEA 0183 sentences so that I can use my router as a GPS source. I used the Victron dbus_gps C package as a reference to see which Dbus fields needed to be populated but I haven't figured out yet how /UtcTimestamp is used by CCGX / VRM. Anyone have a clue?

Thanks!

Hi There,

I have a site with 6x15kVA Quattro's linked to 3 x 27kVA Fronius Eco inverters. On the VRM portal's overview screen I don't see even solar production on an hourly interval.

Rather everything is lumped into a single hour.

See below graph as example.

Any reason why this is happening?

Thanks

Just wondering what kind of internet setups your running. I have a color control hooked up to a quattro with an ac coupled fronius primo. The problem is I have a router running hardwired right now between the CCGX and the fronius. But it has no internet connection. I have a home internet router with internet at the house but it's over 300ft away. I was hoping to be able to connect to my house internet over WiFi but it will be spotty. The problem I'm having is relying on the house router for the dhcp server for the pv interverter to connect to the ggcx.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has panels in a heavily treed area that are over 500 feet from the house that has their CCGX connected to their house internet for monitoring or vrm. I will be putting in a hardwire for internet but it won't be till summer time.

Let me know what setups you guys have and how it works.

Hello Victron community

In vrm "Device list/fronius'' there is ''Status" that can be from Status (1) to Status (6).

Does anybody know what does it mean?

This is a minor issue, and possibly just a bug. But it's new.

My system sometimes resets it's lan address (my fault, not Victron's). VRM rolls on relentlessly, as expected. So sometimes when I need to access the GX screen locally, I have to ask for the new address via 'Device list' in VRM. Except now it doesn't cough the new address, and retains the old one.

To find the new one, VRM can provide it via 'Remote Console', but from the other side of the world, a little sluggish.

Might impinge few, but for me a little disconcerting when Device List isn't showing the truth - even in underlined blue, click on it and it 'errors'. Sure a GX reboot might fix it, but hey..

2.42 GX firmware. For you Teun, should be a yawn.. :)

I was initially using my system until my battery reached it's SOC limit, then used grid until the sun had recharged the battery sufficiently to resume use from the battery. The problem with this is that I was using the grid at "peak" times.

So, to take advantage of "off-peak" rates I now use scheduled charging to bring the battery up to a certain SOC in the early hours of the morning, which then gives me enough battery through the peak time until the solar energy is available again.

BUT, my consumption graph does not record the grid used to charge the battery, which makes sense as I am "not consuming" at that point and will only be consuming this energy via the battery later. Therefore my consumption graph on the dashboard now shows a lower grid usage and higher battery usage, which is not reality - i.e. my grid consumption on the VRM will no longer equal my grid consumption on my municipal bill. I understand why, I just want to know is there any way to know my true grid consumption on the VRM in this configuration?

Hello guys!

I have three-phase ve bus system with two PV chargers.

I think I have some problem with in/out power calculation on VRM portal.

If I take one-day data from VRM its look like the PV to battery power more than the battery to consumption power. So how it's happening? If I take from battery less then I use where the excess power is going?

Hi I’ve got an error #153 when connecting the color control via WiFi to the VRM, I’ve read the manual and searched the internet. I have never had an issue when I’ve connected other installations to the VRM plus it worked via a lan connection in my office when I updated the software and set up the portal ID

Thanks in advance for assistance

My CCGX is currently without internet. To log data for the VRM portal, I have chosen to upload the backlog buffer manually by removing the storage device from the CCGX, a microSD card, and inserting it into my laptop and uploading the data file on it onto the VRM portal with the “Upload CCGX File” option. I did this once successfully but thereafter, I have been receiving the connection error message below on my CCGX. What does this error message mean?

Hallo !

For the second time this summer I have lost data in VRM - no data on dashboard or in advanced

(the system itself works fine :-)

The first time was in July, and I found out that it probably was caused by an update on July 14th.

-see post from that issue here:

https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/24318/missing-data-history-in-vrm-easysolar-24-3kva-july.html

The same thing happened on the 10th of august, which i rectified on 14th of august.
(I am not sure, but I may have switched og the main "output" switch on the 10th of August -but this shouldnt affect the CCGX/VRM /data history....?)

Both times I have rebooted the system (on site) and solved the problem.

(The system is on an island away from where I live (in Oslo) I have no means of checking on the system when I am not there.)

Very curious to why this happens....

Hallo !

From approx 13:30 on the 14th of July I have no data in VRM. The system itself is working fine - but I am frustrated over that I can not follow my system remotely.

Any tips on how to resolve this?

I have an Easysolar 3 kva with 10 kw lithium ion batteries and 1800 watt of panels.

However, I do get the most important realtime data under the dashboard graph chart, and the CCGX on the Easysolar works as it should.

Thanks,

Hi colour control has frozen in pv inverter screen any hard reboot ideas? Why has this happened, can it be reset from VRM?

Many thanks

Matt

I think there is an error for timezone in VRM.

Auckland is showing as UTC+1 (Auckland is UTC+13 or +12 depending on daylight saving).

Have just lost all my Alarm rules and am not able to add any alarm rules . Pressing the "next" key doe s nothing. This has just happened - either related to updating to V 2.41 on my Venus device +- 2 hrs ago or because some alarm rules have been removed by admin - see my previous post.

[image]

What is the VRM alarm rule "Load Avg", Is it in units of watts or amps and is it load on battery or the output of VE Bus device eg Multiplus?

I have activated the Grid Failure facility on my Venus G device - now how do I set up the reporting of it on the VRM portal? There is no such alarm in the pull down menu for the Venus device

Hello, when I select the 12-hour registration interval the interval is 2 hours and when I select 1 day the interval is 4 hours. I could check the graphs and the system summary.
