Use Victron and MQTT ?

Hi,

I just figured out that my Venus is providing any kind of MQTT support - thats fascinating andI would really like to use it ! :)

But there are some questions:

I have actived the MQTT support - so my Venus becomes a MQTT broker.

- All I get is a N/...../system/0/Serial message ... once ... no further updates, no further information ... is that all ?

- Can I use another MQTT broker (I already have one in my LAN) ?

- Is there a documenation about values and functionalities supported by my Venus MQTT ?

BR

I recommend you to search for MQTT in this forum, there are many topics an how to read from the mqtt broker and there are some abour connecting to another broker, but this is a more complicated action instead
