Venus GX compatibility with Multiplus

I have a Multiplus 5000VA model which I bought in 2015. I assume this is not a Multiplus II.


I want to now add solar and want to monitor it remotely via internet.


My thinking is the best way to do this is with Venus GX and a victron MPPT controller. My only worry is whether the Venus works with the older MultiPlus? Where can I confirm this?

Thanks to Ejrossouw for the official document.


I can confirm your 2015 Multi will work. You may need to update your Multiplus firmware to get access to the full feature set.
