Product Details

The Victron VE.Direct to USB interface cable provides a simple and reliable way to link a Victron product equipped with a VE.Direct port (for example an MPPT solar controller, battery monitor or inverter/charger) to a device with a USB connection such as a computer or a GX monitoring device.

This interface is also the recommended solution when you need to connect more VE.Direct devices than there are available VE.Direct ports on a GX device.

This interface cable accommodates data transfer, configuration and monitoring tasks via USB. It offers galvanic isolation when used as specified (see VE.Direct Protocol document).

Ideal for system integrators, off-grid installations, marine or RV applications where monitoring and configuration via a laptop or GX device are required.
