A ﬁxed solar oﬀset of 0.4V is used instead of a variable 2V. (values for 48V systems, divide by 4

for 12V). Note that this solar oﬀset is only applied when ESS-mode is set to Optimized in

combination with the Feed-in excess solar charger power-setting enabled, or when

ESS-mode is set to Keep batteries charged.

Add Auto-recharge feature for the ESS Modes Optimized and Optimized (with

BatteryLife). The system will automatically recharge the battery (from the grid) when the

SOC drops 5% or more below the value of ‘Minimum SOC’ in the ESS menu. Recharge stops

when it reaches the Minimum SOC.

ESS improved state display: In addition to the charger states (Bulk/Absorption/Float), additional

Discharging and Sustain modes were added. In addition it also shows reasons for the state

it is in:

#1: Low SOC: discharge disabled

#2: BatteryLife is active

#3: Charging disabled by BMS

#4: Discharging disabled by BMS

#5: Slow Charge in progress (part of BatteryLife, see above)

#6: User conﬁgured a charge limit of zero.

#7: User conﬁgured a discharge limit of zero.

5. VRM Portal

5.1 VRM Portal Introduction

When connected to the internet, a GX device can be used in combination with the Victron Remote

Management (VRM) portal, which enables:

Easy remote access to all statistics and systems status online

Remote Console on VRM: access and conﬁgure your system as if you were standing besides it

Remote Firmware updates of connected Solar Chargers and other Victron products.

See chapter 1 for how to connect the device to the internet.

5.2 Registering on VRM

Instructions are in the VRM Portal Getting Started document.

Note that any system will need to ﬁrst have been able to successfully send data to the VRM Portal. As

long is there has been no successful connection, it will not be possible to register the system to your

VRM user account. In such case, refer to below Troubleshooting section 5.7.

5.3 Datalogging to VRM

Data-logs are transmitted to the VRM Portal over the Internet, if it's available. All related settings are

available in the VRM Online Portal menu:
