Custom GX Screen

Hi all,

Is it possible to add a new page the a GX device?

I would like a screen of buttons that would be used to control various other devices via MQTT.

Thanks!

Nathan

Yes it is possible. The code is QT and files for each page in the system can be found in /opt/victronenergy/gui/qml. main.qml is where overviews are handled. PageMain.qml is the "Device List" which is the root of all "menu" pages.

what additional hardware would be required to turn on/off 12V circuits?

You could use one of the relay outputs to feed a larger relay to control your loads.
