Venus OS v2.40~46 available for testing

Hello all!

This morning we have released beta version v2.40~46 for testing. There is only a handful of changes, see change log below.

Whats next? there are no more open issues to solve, nor features to be completed. Now all that remains for the final release is more testing, double checking that all reported issues were looked into, and waiting a little.

Best regards, Matthijs.

ps. If you don't know what this post is about: this is about our GX Product range, and this post is aimed at all the members of the Beta test group. See this information on how to join (and leave) that group is here.


Changes in v2.40~46

  • Added the "ESS Relay test" item to the Multi/Quattro advanced page. It contains either Pending or Completed; and while pending the system refuses to feed in (convert from DC to AC while connected to the grid). For more information see Q9 in the ESS FAQ.
  • All translations have been updated.
  • Added GPS Altitude to the ModbusTCP registers (register 2808 as an int32) & added GPS Altitude to the data that is sent to the VRM Portal database.


For earlier changes, see changelog for v2.40~38 upto ~45, and changlog for v2.40~35 up to ~37, and changelog for v2.40~1 to v2.30~34.

Hi, I have an ESS with Multiplus 5000VA, a Fronius 5000VA conected on the AC OUT1, Venus GX and a 7.5 kWh BYD battery. After updated at 2.40 a few days ago, the Multiplus is going many times in the passthrough state for a few seconds. Has someone else same issue? Another issue is that two times it was grid failure alarm, but it was a false signal.

Hi @MaSi, that is probably a know issue. We're coming with a release tomorrow, v2.41. Please install that, and if you're still having issues after that then let me know.


thanks for your report. These reports help us a lot.

Here a comparision Victron AC IN with Fronius smartmeter feed in point. It seems it is a issue of measurment. Fronius measurment looks ok.
