Hi, I have 4 Smart MPPT 150/70 Can Bus connected together, they are charging fine as a Total input from my panels on the BMV but the CCGX only shows the Watts from one of the MPPT's.
Cannot understand the complete lack of settings out there on how to actually setup the latest VE Can Victron MPPT's, with a Victron Multiplus, Victron BMV and Victron CCGX, I have got it working in a fashion but as you can see from above not quite right.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Can you describe/confirm how you have the 4 MPPT units connected together and to the GX device?
Hi, have used the victron supplied VE can RJ45 cables between each MPPT and onto the CCGX and installed terminator plugs in both open ends(one in CCGX and one in first MPPT)
Can you confirm it you are using the 'new' SmartSolar MPPT units with VE.Can and VE.Direct interface? https://www.victronenergy.com/solar-charge-controllers/smartsolar%20mppt%20ve.can
Or the old units with Can interface only?
Also please confirm what firmware version you are running in your CCGX and in all the MPPT units.
Also check the Canbus settings in the CCGX - speed should be 250kbps (under settings > services > VE.Can port).
To comfirm, exactly where is the solar power from a single unit displayed - on the main overview screen or in the device list?
It would be helpful if you could provide some screen images or photos of the CCGX overview screen and the device list showing this.
Have you plugged a terminator into the last MPPT and the 2nd Can-port of the CCGX?
Hi, I can confirm yes I have.
