BlueSolar 150/85 with Venus and Polyntech batteries

I currently have the following:

10 KVa 48v Quattro with two old BlueSolar 150/85 MPPT's and a Venus controller running ESS with gel batteries. The MPPT's are connected to the venus via Ve.can bus. When I remove the terminator on the venus and plug the type b cable from the batteries the MPPT's is no longer visible. It seems that there is no write up running the old type bluesolars MPPT's with Polyntech.

Venus GX - VGX

Hi @Ronnie Verhoeven. You’ll need to use the second CanBus port on the Venus, it’s a green terminal connector and not a RJ45 connector. Use this port for the pylontech CanBus, and set it to 500kbps. Here a link to the pylontech CanBus pinout https://www.victronenergy.com/live/battery_compatibility:can-bus_bms-cable
