I'm trying to install the latest firmware on my WiFi module following the video instructions and instead of the messages shown I get "Update file not found". Hardware 1.2, current SW 1.1. I tried...
my daughter's MB Sprinter van has the non pro WS500 and I want to see the alternator output displayed on her Victron display. Can you help?
On the Victron Community Venus OS beta thread, if you are testing these then it is worth keeping up with the development. As V3.60 is now released, the full change log is available on Victron Prof...
@Tine Andrejasic Tine, are you able to include this variable in the next firmware update? Rick
Can we get this added? VenusOS supports it and it would be nice to have.
Ok, I'm glad that someone else is seeing the same thing. Where did you see the text "Add Battery charge request info"? In some release notes or elsewhere?
DVCC does work. Under /System, have you enabled "Support Victron DVCC = ON"?
These datas are sent by the "REC-BMS Q Series BMS". Seems to be an new feature in Venus release-candidate v3.60~73. The description is so far only this "Add Battery charge request info". So far ...
@Peter That's my understanding as well, and my set up.
Just noticed that in the House Batt (REC-BMS Q Series BMS) Parameters page, "Reqests Charing always shows "No" even when the WS-500 is charging the battery and the volatge is lower. Is this...
I thought that you needed the shunt on the alternator output and to have set the alternator maxium amps value aswell for DVCC to function correctly.
Yes, it is indeed to high. Try setting the Charged Voltage to 13.9V.
WS500 does indeed support DVCC. Just make sure your WS500 has newest FW and DVCC support is enabled in the settings in WS500.
Hi All I have a 1120Ah LifePO4 battery, a REC BMS, a Cerbo GX, a Multiplus II and a WS500. I am getting significant different SOC readings between the REC BMS and the Victron BMV. I think the cha...
Hello all I have a 1120Ah LiFePO4 battery with a REC BMS, a Multiplus II, a Cerbo GX and a WS500. The Wakespeed is driving a 180A water cooled alternator. A great setup and I am very happy with ...
They fixed one more thing on V1.25. When Alternator current is below 1A, it now sends data to the Cerbo as 0A. Before it would show +10W all day, every day, messing up the consumption calculation...
You can not remove this, Victron systems are nearly all built aroubd ac/dc conversion. Perhaps one day it will be customisable.
Victron recently confirmed that this was waiting for updated WS500 firmware when I reported it.
You may try the REC Follow again now. I think they changed it from 500 kps to 250kbps on the last update. But then you need to change REC BMS to 250 kps, and REC + Zeus needs to be ...
Use of Relays and Opto-Couplers in Master-Slave configuration: Dear community. I have written my questions also to Tine at REC headquarters but he is out of office until at least 1st of June. So ...
@Trond yeah, the battery temp isn't attached to the regulator. I was hoping it would populate from the REC supplied data. No such luck....but not the end of the world either as the REC ...
Definetly an step in the right direction. And I found the same thing, will report til Arco. BTW, your battery temp shows 0`C.
I've just updated, and setup with REC on can1 at 500K, Zeus as victron follower on can2 @250k. So far so good, the Zeus(s) see the pertinent battery info from the REC. but, th...
DVCC seems to work now in V1.25, great. Just make sure NMEA2000-out is enabled in the Cerbo. /Settings/Services/VE.CAN port. If not, DVCC does not work. I also suspect they changed REC ...
Thank you Rick. That did the trick! Bob

ARCO Zeus Firmware 1.25 Update is out. https://arcomarine.com/pages/arco-zeus-bluetooth-alternator-regulator-firmware-updates Now DVCC should work, have not tested it myself yet.
In recent years it has been confirmed that you generally do not want to use a float charge when charging Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. Unlike lead-acid batteries, which benefit from a...
I can't seem to figure out how to remove the inverter and AC loads icons from my DC only engine alternator system. I'm sure I'm missings some setting somewhere. Anyone else figure this out w...
The WS-500 2.6.1-January f/w seems to be the ticket
I'm using 3 as well. Everything seems to be working. Thanks!
Reach out to matthew@dragonflyenergy.com for the latest firmware update. That way, you will get the latest version, which I believe is the January build.
I've updated to the 2.6.1 January build and can now see field drive on my Cerbo.
The new series of REC BMS products now incorporate the easy to use Mate N Lok connectors. To insert or remove a pin simply follow these 2 steps bend back the two retaincer clips on the side of ...
Seems like they will release new FW Next week. Found this in an facebook group. Should solve the DVCC not working correctly in current version.
