Communication between Windows Bluetooth and Bluetooth enabled Victron devices

Hi all. Is there any way one can get basic information from a Bluetooth enabled Victron devices through Windows and its embedded Bluetooth?

We are making use of the BlueSolar MPPT 100/15 charge controller.

Hi Stephanus,

Sorry but No.

I go into some detail about the reasons in this similar question here - https://community.victronenergy.com/questions/10456/am-i-correct-that-i-cant-use-the-victron-connect-w.html

Also be aware that the BlueSolar does not have included bluetooth, and requires an external VE.Direct to Bluetooth dongle for bluetooth function on Mac, iPhone and Android.

The bluetooth enabled model is the SmartSolar.

Hi,

I was wondering if this is the correct thread to follow regarding the status of Bluetooth support for Windows devices?


Cheers - Martin
