Common Issue and questions:
- Power LED is ON, but no communication
This is a common issue. The most likely cause is the use of a USB cable that only carries power and lacks data
lines.
Solution: Replace the cable with a USB data cable. - Is it compatible with Victron Cerbo ?
Yes it is compatible - Random disconnections
Possible causes and solutions:
–Faulty or degraded SD card: Try replacing the SD card in your system.
–Poor quality or overly long USB cable: Use a shorter, high-quality USB cable. - Not all VE.Direct ports are working
Try rebooting the device to reset the communication interfaces.
