The MPPT itself don't have a internet connection, so it can't check/update the firmware on its own. You have to use the VictronConnect app.

Hey @Southace, you're using VictronConnect version 5,8 while the latest available version is 5.16.


In that later v5.16, it clearly shows if a firmware is up to date or not. If you can, update your Victron Connect.


If for some reason you cannot update that, then you will not automatically get firmware updates, which means you'll have to go looking for them yourself on https://professional.victronenergy.com.
