Integration of EFOY fuel cell to Venus OS

Hi all,

We have a EFOY Pro fuel cell and we are searching for a developer who can impleement the unit to the Victron Remote Monitoring systems such as Venos GX, Octo GX and also the Color Control GX. Also it would be great to see the unit via the Victron VRM system. Do you have any contacts or advises how to get this done?

The fuel cells have RS232 cleartext and RS232 Modbus RTU protocols.

Thanks and best regards
Stephan
