This cable links a VE.Direct-equipped device to a GX device, a VE.Direct to USB interface, a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle, or a similar accessory. It is a data-only cable and does not carry power to the connected equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe right angle connector suits installations where the VE.Direct port faces a wall, panel surface or enclosure side, since a straight plug would either fail to fit or apply sideways force on the connector over time. The straight end fits the monitoring or interface device in the usual orientation. At 3 metres it covers most cabinet and wall-mounted layouts without excess slack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting a SmartSolar MPPT charge controller to a Cerbo GX or Venus GX in a wall-mounted enclosure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinking a BMV-700 or BMV-712 battery monitor to a Color Control GX where the port orientation calls for a right angle connector.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting a Phoenix inverter to a VE.Direct to USB interface for PC-based monitoring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny VE.Direct run parallel to the device face where a straight connector would create a sharp bend.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1 x VE.Direct Cable, 3m, one right angle connector and one straight connector\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMake sure both VE.Direct ports are unpowered before connecting.
