Victron Venus GX communication-centre BPP900400100

The Victron Energy Venus GX System Control Module (MPN BPP900400100) offers intuitive operation and monitoring of all power systems based on Victron components. It is particularly well suited as the central hub in an ESS (Energy Storage System). In terms of functionality, the Venus GX is similar to Victron’s Color Control GX, but without a display and without a built-in modem, making it significantly more affordable. It transmits all system data to Victron’s free VRM Portal, from which you can monitor and manage your power system globally.

In addition to power electronics, tank levels of up to 3 tanks can also be monitored and visualized in the VRM Portal. In addition to remote monitoring of connected devices, remote configuration is also possible.

Remote Console on the VRM

Setup and monitoring are done via the Remote Console—either through the VRM, the built-in Wi-Fi access point, or the local LAN/Wi-Fi network.

Automatic Generator Start/Stop

A highly flexible start/stop system. It uses charge, voltage, load, and other parameters. Specific settings for quiet times and an optional monthly test run can be configured.

Internet Connection

The Venus GX can be connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable and via Wi-Fi. The Venus GX does not have a built-in cellular modem: there is no SIM card slot. Instead, use a standard GPRS or 3G router.

Tank Level Sensor Inputs

The tank level sensor inputs are resistive: connect them to a resistive tank sender. Such tank senders are not offered by Victron. The tank level ports can each be configured to work with European tank senders (0 - 180 Ohms), or US tank senders (240 - 30 Ohms).

Data Logging

If the system is connected to the internet, all data is sent to the VRM Portal. If no internet connection is available, the Venus GX stores the data internally for up to 48 hours. By inserting a microSD card or USB stick, additional data can be stored. These files can be uploaded to the VRM Portal or converted offline for analysis using the VictronConnect App.

Additional Highlights

• The Venus GX can automatically update itself via the internet when a new software version is available.
• Multiple languages: English, Czech, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Swedish, Turkish, Chinese, Arabic.
• Use the Venus GX as a Modbus-TCP gateway to all connected Victron products.
• Linux OS-based operating system
