converting .rvcs file into .vcsf format

Hello all,


can i convert an .rvcs file into .vcsf format?


I managed to download the rvcs config file via VRM to my computer.

I want to change some configuration and upload it again.


The only program I can use is the victron connect app on Linux.


This app just creates the .vcsf format.


Is there any way to convert these formats or another way to edit the .rvcs file manualy on Linux?

Hi @chainmaster,

At this stage remote settings changes for Multis requires VE.Configure - and that requires a windows environment.

It is possible to run VE.Configure for this purpose in something like WINE, or parallels, emulation and virtual machines, on other platforms - search the community for more info on that.

The full documentation for Remote VE.Configure is here - https://www.victronenergy.com/live/vrm_portal:remote-veconfigure


It is possible to adjust *MOST* commonly used settings on the Multi In VictronConnect for Linux, but this requires you to be local to the machine with the MK3-USB adapter, and doesn't allow advanced configurations like assistants or remote configuration.
