Cerbo GX - Communication with our BMS via CAN (VE.can-VE.Bus?)

We will use Quattro inverters for three phase.

Like these systems Model (victronenergy.com.tr)

But we will also use our BMS for our battery packs.

We want to send information about our voltages, battery percentage, current, etc. to Cerbo GX and GX Touch (and if possible we want to control when the charger will charge and not charge) using CanOpen for BMS so we can configure addresses or mapp the messages.

I couldnt find any source for Cerbo GX Can Message frame. Just find this site Battery Compatibility [Victron Energy] that says you can use third party BMS for battery but Victron doesnt recommend that. We want to use anyway, so is there any document or example for this project?

Your BMS manufacturer has to have integrated the victron messaging into their system. It isn’t something that can be done after market. There is an unsupported serial driver you also can use.

Victron don’t publicly share this information, though you can find some of it via google.
