Can you see the battery in your Venus device as a Pylontech?

Did you change to this on the Venus CAN-bus BMS (500 kbit/s)?

I had problems before I change the CAN-bus setting.

Pylontech batteries are shown as a single unit under battery monitor under the device list in the VRM Portal:

Hello to everybody!

Hello @Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager)

I have exactly the same problem. I have setup a new ESS 3-phase system with

  • 1x Multiplus-2 GX 3000 (upgrade to newest FW done)
  • 2x Multiplus-2 3000 (upgrade to newest FW done)
  • 8x Pylontech US2000B+
  • 1x Victron VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS Typ B

The special cable is connected in the Multiplus 2 GX and there is the "Resistor", too.

Here a screenshot from VRM. there are "only" two device visible: Gateway and VE BUS System. No Battery Monitor! ;-(

The pylons are online and suppling power to the Multiplus. I have read here as well in the Victron Pylon Document (5 GX-Device) that the speed of CAN-Bus should be adjusted to 500 kbit/s but I couldn't find where and how to do this. So I think this might be the problem. Perhabs some body can guide me how to check and fix the CAN-Bus speed.

What I am doing wrong? What I am missing?

I am afraid I need help on this.

Any suggestions are more than welcome.
