Can one configure a Venus GX in standalone mode or does it have to be connected to an Inverter?
The GX does what it does with nothing attached to it and it will send data back to VRM for whichever supported device is attached. It can be used for connecting MPPT's to a managed battery and it does not have to have an inverter.
VRM and the console is however, designed to report around a Victron inverter, so in the absence of one, the dashboard and display may not render as expected.
This is more commonly experienced when people use a third party inverter measured via a meter.
when entering "Remote VEConfigure" the portal reports "No remote configurable service on your site"
I have no idea where to search for this issue....
I have no idea how else to configure the Inverter (Multiplus Compact 24| 2000| 50) to accept the LiFePo4 batteries instead of the current Pb battery set
