Naming VE.Direct Blue Tooth Dongle in VictronConnect, the name stays with the dongle not the device it is attached to?

Hi Folks,

Noticed that the device name feature on V.E. Direct devices BMV702 & MPPT 75/50 is not being applied to the device , instead it appears to be staying with the dongle and transferring to the next device used by the masking any label that is associated with the device.

Looks like a firmware bug. I have confirmed that I am saving the changes. I have reconnected the BTD several times and tested it on other V.E. Direct devices , same issue.

Any idea folks & Victron team?

Hi @Enya,

This is a limitation of non-bluetooth products. They are not designed to store the bluetooth name, so the name is stored on the bluetooth dongle itself.
