I had a peek at the Victron document on firmware versions and the 18 prefix doesn't even appear. How old is the unit?

edit: take a look at

My multi is the same age as the one in the post you recommended but I am using a MK2 U.S.B. Interface and the software finds the target but after that it retrieves supported functions, reading block 1 and then shows a error during communication.

Not sure what else I can suggest. Check that your Mk2 cabling (both sides) are good, and similarly for their connectors. And when you say update, do you mean updated VEC3? If so do you have a copy of VEC3 prior to the update?
