Need help with adding Victron Venus GX to an existing system.

Need help! I have installed and configured VICTRÓN Multiplus 48/8000 / 120-100, VICTRÓN blue solar MPPT 150/85-TR / MC4 (12/24 / 48V-85ª), Batteries “PYLONTECH US2000 de litio 2.5 KW 48V. Everything works perfectly.

Now I have bought a VENUS GX, and need to know if it can be installed except that I need to do all the configuration I have done from the beginning.

Grateful for answers

Hi @FrankRobert,

Congratulations on the system.

The first place to start is these documents:

https://www.victronenergy.com/live/venus-gx:start

https://www.victronenergy.com/live/battery_compatibility:pylontech_phantom

They should answer nearly all of your possible questions, and I would be happy to help further if you have a question that isn’t answered by them.

Hi, I used the Venus (colorcontrol) each time from the start. But I don't think that the venus takes over the control of your system after installing...
