Hello. I´ve seen in some tutorials that to configure my Victron equipment with my PC is necessary to communicate it through an ethernet cable and a Victron MK2 connector to plug it in to my computer to a USB port. I want to ask if any one knows if I have to use the Victron MK2 adaptor or if I can use any other ethernet-UBS adapter for the communication. Thank you.
You cannot use an Ethernet to USB adapter because the interface is VE.bus, not Ethernet. Compatible adapters are stated in the products user manual. Also, there is a lot of information in this document:

More information about connecting is in the VEConfigure manual here:
