Venus GX >>> Phoenix Inverter 250W VE Direct

I want to connect a Phoenix Inverter 250W (24V) VE Direct into a Venus GX along with a battery monitor and MPPT 75/15. My questions are;

1) Can I use the USB port for the MPPT and still get information on the VRM portal

2) Will the Phoenix Inverter show on the VRM portal using the VE Direct because it is not a VE.Bus product?

3) If it can - what firmware versions are required for the inverter & venus?
