2. Installation
• Connect the dongle directly to the VE.Direct port of a compatible Victron product.
• Ensure that the compatible Victron product has been powered up so that the dongle is also powered.
• On power-up, the blue LED will blink, and the red LED will quickly flash. The red LED will give a short flash to confirm that the
red LED is functional.
• Connect to the dongle using the VictronConnect App.
• If a firmware update is required, the blue and red LED will blink fast in an alternating fashion. The VictronConnect App will
automatically update the firmware.
• If a firmware update is not required, the blue LED will slowly blink and the red LED is off
• Once the VictronConnect App has established a successfully connection with the dongle (and the firmware was successfully
updated), the blue LED will be on and the red LED will be off.
• Quite often, the firmware of the connected Victron product will also be updated on first connection.
It is not possible to extend the 1.5m VE.Direct cable.
