Man..that new GUI looks WAY better.. much easier to read, use and shows more too. Very much hope it's available soon as I start my Victron path.

@AdamDeLay07 6 месяцев назад

I believe I heard something about March 2024 is their targeted release date.

@b3owu1f 6 месяцев назад

@@AdamDeLay07 Oh nice. That's not too far out. I am curious if because they use MQTT there is a way to tie in to many of their data/triggers via Home Assistant.. to trigger things, etc. I will eventually have my lights, and other things tied to MQTT/Home Assistant via switches, etc. Not sure what can be done yet though. Maybe if battery is getting low, flicker any lights that are on to remind people to shut them off. :D.

@AdamDeLay07 6 месяцев назад

@@b3owu1f Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can integrate into HomeAssistant. They also have NodeRed as another programming option. That's one big draw for people. Lots of possibilities!

I hope they eventually duplicate the generator control on the second relay, I’ve got something in mind for that. Being able to control certain conditions opens up all sorts of possibilities “for me at least” Thanks for the review 🤙🇦🇺

@Anthonya54 6 месяцев назад

Great video. I was wondering how you connect via a browser to the Cerbo to test remote console over LAN (page 32 in Beta Doc. Do you need to connect via ethernet cable or can you use wifi.

@AdamDeLay07 6 месяцев назад

Thanks! Your Cerbo can be connected to your network either through Ethernet or WiFi. Mine uses wifi. You just need to find the IP address of your Cerbo from its settings.

@thehopulusexperience995 5 месяцев назад

Great video!!!! Any chance of displaying a second battery? E.G 12 and 24v hours batteries? Or engine and genset starter batteries?

@AdamDeLay07 5 месяцев назад

Thanks! I'm not sure. I know they're still working on getting the basic components ported over from the old version. I would imagine they'll have a lot more flexibility once that's done to add a lot more features though.

@larrylp2192 6 месяцев назад

I have been running this for about a month. I like some of it, especially the charts, although they need to be greatly expanded. It has frozen once and I had to reboot it. One curious thing about the charts... the solar production history appears to be backwards compared to VRM... newest on left vs. newest on right.

@AdamDeLay07 6 месяцев назад

Nice! Yeah I imagine over time there might be a handful of inconsistencies pointed out that will need to be addressed.

@rubystead6971 Месяц назад

Have it working on Tablet , Android Phone and Windows 10 laptop however i don't have TIME TO GO on brief on any of them as you do . MPPY State on Overview or Brief would be useful . Also noticed Solar feeds battery THEN Inverter , VRM shows both are being fed individually .

@AdamDeLay07 Месяц назад

I’m not sure about the “time to go”. Sometimes it’s there and sometimes it’s not. I’m sure it’s just one of those things that’s still being worked on. As far as the solar feeding the battery first, I’m sure it’s just a matter of real estate. It’s still feeding power the same way, it’s just represented differently. It would be nice if it showed the way the VRM does though so it doesn’t confuse people in thinking all power goes through the battery.

@ascii892 7 месяцев назад

Hi Adam, did you have to remove the gui-mods before installing the beta?

@AdamDeLay07 7 месяцев назад

No I didn't. After I installed the beta, it looks like it disabled gui-mods.

@chipmeister111 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video, much appreciated. I'm actually amazed that victron customers have been having to settle with the original GUI since it was built 100+ years ago. It's an embarrassing setup to watch y'all fumble through in RU-vid. The new interface appears more intuitive, easy on the eyes and snappy so hopefully it'll be up and running soon. Having all of the upgrades that the gentleman Kevin incorporated into everything including support for added relays will probably be more important to me than the newest interface if a choice ultimately needs to be made. Has anyone been able to replicate this on their Raspberry pi?

@AdamDeLay07 6 месяцев назад

Thanks. The same interface also runs on the raspberry pi. You don’t need to do anything special.

In my update feed there is only "Official Release" and "Beta release", how do I get the "Latest release candidate"?

@AdamDeLay07 3 месяца назад

If you want to try out the new GUI 2.0, you'll have to switch to the "beta release" feed and install from there.

@tom18181 5 месяцев назад

Hi there. Did you have any issue with you display sleeping ? Thank

@AdamDeLay07 5 месяцев назад

Because the Remote Console doesn’t work in the VRM, I haven’t enabled the new gui on the display for long term use. I have been monitoring the beta thread on the forum and I believe that the auto brightness and sleep functions aren’t working at this time. It’s a known issue though. Victron is currently working on their 3.20 update. Once that’s complete they’ll be back to the gui v2 updates.

@tom18181 5 месяцев назад

@AdamDeLay07 Thanks for that info. All up, I like the beta software. But I won't really use it until that screen sleep issue is fixed. Thanks again

@adhdengineer 15 дней назад

I wish they'd make the Venus OS more simple to install by just making it packages you can install on normal Raspbian. Not sure why they need their own "distro"

How do you set the AC current limit from GUI2?

@AdamDeLay07 4 месяца назад

On any page of GUI2, there's a button on the top-left corner of the screen. You tap that and then you should see the ability to change the AC IN limit. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gGCxxiSB1lc.html

@camustang1966 4 месяца назад

@@AdamDeLay07 Thank you for quick reply. On my version of GUI2 (3.40~1), when I clicked on that, it said "Unrecognized". This may be because I had manually set the current limit to 28A via VE Configure. When I set it to 50A through the VRM and rebooted the Cerbo, it now shows what you are saying. So, it may seem that setting it to something other than the defined settings (15, 20, 30, 50, etc) stops someone from using the quick set option? I'm not sure...it may be something to test.

Hi If you can help to install New Gui -v2 mode

@AdamDeLay07 3 месяца назад

Victron released an update but had to push back the gui update. You’ll need to switch to the beta firmware path (3:02 in the video) and install the latest beta and then follow the rest of the steps. I believe the latest beta is 3.40 something. Once your on that firmware version, then you should be able to see the new UI.
