Android GX Wifi Display – A simple, wireless display solution for GX devices
We are glad to introduce the Android GX Wifi Display: a simple way to turn any Android phone or tablet into a wireless display for monitoring and controlling GX devices.
The app can be installed on any Android device running version 8.0 or higher, and connects to the GX device over the same Wifi network. It is ideal for compact installations, where placing a display exactly where you need it is important and running cables can be tricky.
It is also a practical solution for larger setups, where you can install multiple Android GX Wifi Displays that work independently, making it easier to monitor and control the system from different locations such as on different floors of a building or compartments of a vessel.
Before setup, the Android device must be factory reset. Once the app is installed, the device becomes a dedicated GX display and won’t be usable for other tasks. It will stay locked in this mode until another factory reset. Also keep in mind that, while the connection is wireless, the Android device still needs a permanent charging source.
This new display solution is a practical option for systems that need more flexibility than our regular display solutions.
To get started, you can watch the video below and read the Android GX Wifi Display manual to access the QR code for downloading the app and to see the full setup instructions.
For fleet owners managing multiple installations, the new VRM Fleet Dashboard offers a clearer and faster way to stay on top of your sites.
Until now, there wasn’t really a place on VRM where you could see how your entire fleet was doing at a glance. This was especially challenging for those managing 10 sites or more. The installation overview page provides detailed information, but for fleet managers with hundreds of installations, spotting potential issues often meant manually filtering through sites. And when it came to fault finding, they had to check each site one by one, which could be a very time-consuming process. The new Fleet Dashboard changes that.
Designed to make things easier
Our development team uses the VRM portal every day, just like many other Victron users. They’re always looking for ways to make the experience smoother, so you can start your workday with more clarity and less clicking. So when a team member said,
“As a fleet owner, I want to land on a VRM homepage that gives me at-a-glance info on my fleet, so I can quickly dive deeper into other parts of VRM,”
it became the starting point for the new Fleet Dashboard: a clear overview of all installations that shows you what’s going on with your fleet right away.
Alarms
VRM Fleet Dashboard- alarms
Fleet owners now land on a homepage that gives an instant overview of system status. At the top of the page, you’ll see:
Total active alarms
New alarms today
Alarms in the past 24 hours
Clicking on the active alarms takes you straight to the installation overview, which is already filtered to only show the sites with issues.
The dashboard also includes a calendar-style graph that helps you identify patterns or recurring alarms over time.
Insights
VRM Fleet Dashboard – insights
Scrolling down, the dashboard presents a range of detailed insights across all installations:
Battery cell imbalance Identify early signs of degradation by spotting voltage differences between cells.
Battery voltage mismatch Detect gaps between BMS and inverter or charger readings that could point to wiring or communication issues.
Forecasted vs actual solar production Compare expected and actual solar yield.
Battery temperature Monitor for unusually high or low temperatures that could affect performance or lifespan.
Disconnected devices Quickly see which installations have devices that are no longer reporting.
Generator service expiration Stay ahead of maintenance by tracking generator runtime until the next service.
Generator inactivity Identify generators that have not run for a while and may need attention.
Each installation shown in these insights can be pinned to the top for quick access, or snoozed if it doesn’t need immediate attention.
