dbus-serialbattery
This is a driver for Venus OS devices (any GX device sold by Victron or a Raspberry Pi running the Venus OS image).
The driver will communicate with a Battery Management System (BMS) that support serial (RS232, RS485 or TTL UART) and Bluetooth communication (see BMS feature comparison for details). The data is then published to the Venus OS system (dbus). The main purpose is to act as a Battery Monitor in your GX and supply State of Charge (SoC) and other values to the inverter/charger.
