Question:
How do I make Victron MultiPlus 12/1600/70-16 230V VE.Bus "listen" to ATC / ATD Signals from Lynx Smart BMS 500?
Details:
I have a Lynx Smart BMS 500 and a MultiPlus 12/1600/70-16 230V VE.Bus.
Running the MultiPLus as Charger or Inverter works fine - but it needs to listen to the "Allow to Charge" and "Allow to Discharge" signals provided by the BMS.
My other Victron devices have enable inputs I can use or I am taking away the respective connections using relays controlled by the ATC/ATD signals of the BMS. The MultiPlus is lacking inputs like this - and I can't use relays, because then it still won't know if it is allowed to charge or discharge.
The MultiPlus is connected to the VE Bus Bluetooth Dongle and I am using the app to configure everything.
From my understanding I need to find a way to get the VE-CAN device (BMS) and the VE-BUS Device to talk to each other. Is there a direct method? Or do I need additional Hardware?
Any help is appreciated, even if it is just pointing me into the right direction. E.g. I'd like to read more about the different Victron Bus Systems and how they can or can't interact.
Thank You!
