veLink – Victron BT to NMEA 2000

240,00

“veLink connects up to eight Victron devices via Bluetooth and centralizes their key data on the NMEA2000 network. It allows monitoring of battery status, solar inputs, DC converters, shore/alternator charging and consolidates alarms for simple monitoring from onboard multifunction displays.”

Description

KEY FEATURES

veLink allows you to wirelessly connect up to eight Victron devices equipped with a Bluetooth interface to your NMEA 2000 network, covering the vast majority of installations.

veLink enables the retrieval of essential data from Victron battery monitors (SmartShunt, BMV, etc.) on multifunction displays and chartplotters connected to the NMEA 2000 network: current consumption, battery voltage, service and engine battery status, as well as remaining autonomy/SOC displayed on chartplotters.

veLink also provides information from a compatible shore power charger to accurately monitor the batteries’ charge current.  The charger may often be  installed in an inaccessible area so this wireless device makes monitoring easy

Similarly, it retrieves data from MPPT solar regulators, allowing real-time visualization of solar input and panel exposure.

For installations equipped with an Orion DC/DC converter, veLink displays the actual power being delivered by say, the alternator a service battery.

Finally, veLink centralizes alarms from all these Victron devices allowing you to be immediately notified on your chartplotter or multi-function display in case of an issue, even without a smartphone.

It is also possible to customize the names of all devices on the NMEA2000 network, for example: engine battery, service battery, windlass battery, starboard solar panel, etc.

OPERATION

You can configure the veLINK by accessing its web interface. The Victron device configuration page allows you to scan for and connect to devices using the connection key available in the Victron Connect mobile app.

During configuration, you can choose the name of your device as it will appear on the NMEA network, allowing you to personalize each device. You can also assign different instances to distinguish multiple devices of the same type and select the NMEA 2000 data to be sent over the network, such as battery status, detailed DC status, or charger status.

Alarms configured in the Victron Connect app can also be transmitted to the NMEA 2000 network to be displayed on compatible devices, such as GARMIN chartplotters. Additionally, a specific alert is triggered if a device disconnects for more than 30 seconds.
