Extract Battery and Solar data from Cerbo Gx

I just got a Cerbo GX unit. I want to extract the battery and solar voltage from the Cerbo unit via ethernet to my pc. Is there any way that this is possible. I don't want to use the VRM portal as I'm not planning to use the internet. Right now i can access the unit using its local ip. Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Hi @Joel Cherian,

Yes it is possible, but will require some programming knowledge.

I will move this question to modifications space, and while waiting for others who might be able to provide more information.

More information is here:

Sorry for asking again. Is there a feature in Cerbo which gives data to an excel file automatically ? I looked into the dashboard project ,but it does not seem to have any HTML or Javascript code with it.

And dont forget the other option: it can store data on an sdcard or usb stick, which you can then take out and convert to excel using our VictronConnect app. Thats also a commonly used method for offgrid systems.


see the Cerbo manual
