BlueSolar MPPT 150/85

I have a BlueSolar MPPT 150/85 (Firmware ver 2.02)with the 2 Canbus ports only,connected to

a CCGX ,which connects to a Multiplus via VE Direct. Is there a way to modify settings on the MPPT

besides using the panel buttons and the LCD display? The LCD has a few segments which are not

readable so cant see the values reliably to make changes ...

Thank you...my understanding is that one needs the mk3 usb for victronconnect app and the mk2 does not work with the app? Will the values be brought over from the mppt to CCGX on canbus and then to the muliplus on VEbus and then to the mk3?

The app allows you to access the MPPT settings remotely via the VRM remote tab, provided it is visible via the GX and VRM.

@Bruce Rattray Check out the Connect & Configure Remotely in the Latest VictronConnect Update video. You only need a VE Direct cable between the CGX and mppt.

Should you want to program a multi, you can use VRM: Remote VEConfigure , no MK3 device needed.

@klim8skeptic thanks but it seems it requires a VE Direct connection between CCGX and MPPT,but my MPPT is a VE Can device with 2 VE Can sockets ?

@Bruce Rattray Is your mppt 150/85 one of the metal cased units, with a LCD display?

@nickdb Does VE Power setup,connected via the Victron CANUSB interface allow access to any settings,or is it only for uploading updates ?
