I've been working on a Nodered integration that includes some Victron Equipment and would like to use the Venus OS on a Raspberry Pi 3b+ to simulate my final configuration for development and testing. Just a side note the Nodered server will be running on another RPi so the "Venus Large" build is not needed.
I've got a lot working, but still a lot that is not.
What works:
- RPi 3b+ with Venus OS 2.73
- Boot via Ethernet cable to connect
- Access to RPi using Victron Connect
- Access RPi using Remote Console either from local network or VRM
- Use remote console to set WiFi parameters and no longer need ethernet cable
- Enable VRM and see demo configs on the portal
What doesn't work that I need some help with:
- Access from local network with SSH. I've enabled Remote Console but still get either connection refused or no response when SSH'ng from my Mac
- Being able to enable VNC to access Linux console
- MOST IMPORTANT: Add additional devices (Inverters, MPPT Chargers, etc etc) to mimic my actual setup
If anyone can point my in the direction of how to enable ssh and/or vnc access, as well as add additional "virtual" devices I'd appreciate it. That way I can work on the other side, configuring my MQTT client to monitor the setup.
Thanks in advance,
