Hi Kit,

PV voltage is available in the Advanced section of VRM, enable the PV voltage widget.

@Guy Stewart (Victron Energy Staff)

thanks mate for your reply, as it turns out i have the PV V & A widget turned on and all it has in it is no data to display.

I have 3 bluesolar 100/85 chargers that a hooked together , this should'nt effect the data ?

thanks

The BlueSolar MPPT "PV Voltage" is available on the D Bus, so one can subscribe to these messages using the MQTT topic "N/Portal_ID/solarcharger/256/Pv/V" (where "Portal_ID" is replaced with your actual VRM Portal ID).

I can therefore plot PV Voltage from my BlueSolar MPPT 150/70 on my Home Automation system. It should therefore also be possible to add a Widget to the VRM Portal to show this data.
