VGR connection to VEBUS

We have rebuild a system with 6 of current version Quattro 10KVA (Software Version 2653465). The original System with Quattros installed in 2011 was monitored by a VICTRON GLOBAL REMOTE Modem, connected to a BMV600 and sending the Data via GSM network. Now with the new Inverters the VEBUS is not showing anymore on VRM Website and when monitored via SMS it also does not show the VEBUS Values. Only the data of the BMV is shown. When the VEBUS-data is requested via SMS we get the reply: “VE.Bus communication is being established”. The Version of VGR is V2.14, firmware: R7.44.0.2010083112.

Is there any possibility to connect the current version QUATTROS with their VEBUS to the existing VGR GSM Unit. Or is there an Update / setting we can send to the VGR modem in order to see the VEBUS from the QUATTROS?

Hi @mriehmer

You'll need to update to version 4.16,

instructions can be found at https://professional.victronenergy.com/accounts/login/?next=/downloads/firmware/


As you'll know there are limitations with this old hardware, you could consider upgrading to one of the GX units.
