1. Only one battery monitor (BMV, SmartShunt, Smart Battery Sense or VE.Bus Smart Dongle) can be
included in a VE.Smart network.
2. All battery monitor connections (voltage sensing cables, temperature sensor and current shunt) and
chargers in a common VE. Smart network must be connected to the same battery / battery bank.
3. The maximum number of devices permitted in a VE.Smart network is 10.
4. Communication via VE.Smart networking requires all devices to be located within Bluetooth range of
each other. Systems with poor or intermittent Bluetooth signal between devices will experience connection
issues. Signal strength between devices can be checked in the VictronConnect VE.Smart networking
page.
5. Multiple chargers in a common VE.Smart network must have the same charge settings, since the 'master'
can change dynamically any charger could become the 'master'.
6. Multiple chargers in a common VE.Smart network do not need to be the same model, they just need to
be VE.Smart Networking compatible (this includes VE.Smart Networking compatible Blue Smart chargers,
Phoenix chargers and MPPT solar chargers).
7. Some older devices are not VE.Smart networking compatible, refer to the product manual for confirmation.
