## What the source says

> 1.4 Solar Charger compatibility All 48V BlueSolar and SmartSolar VE.Direct MPPT Chargers are compatible (*). Some of our Solar Chargers feature a VE.Direct communication port, some feature a VE.Can communication port, and some feature both. Both of these types of communication ports can be used to connect the Solar charger to the GX Device. Such connection is mandatory, because it is used to regulate charge currents and voltages. When planning to use the VE.Can communications port to connect the Solar Charger(s), make sure to select a GX Device that has sufficient CAN-Bus ports. The Color Control GX has only one such port, its VE.Can port, and is therefor not suitable. All other GX Devices can be used, since they have two ports. One can then be used to connect the BYD battery, and the other to connect the Solar Charger. (*) with exception of the models “BlueSolar MPPT 150/70 CAN-bus” and “BlueSolar MPPT 150/85 CAN-bus” which are end-of-life since 2019. Legacy systems, historically installed with this configuration using the allow to charge contacts are not required to make any changes, see the legacy chapter below for details. 1.5 Battery compatibility The following batteries are supported: B-BOX LV series type | B-BOX Pro 2.5-10.0 | B-BOX Pro 12.8 | B-BOX Pro 13.8 | B-BOX Res 2.5-10.0 | B-BOX Compact | B-BOX L 3.5-14.0 | B-BOX Premium LVL 15.4 | B-BOX Premium LVS 4.0 | B-BOX LV Flex 5.0 | BYD also releases firmware update for their BMU and BMS. B-Box Pro BMU Firmware versions earlier than V4-13 are not compatible with Victron equipment and can cause the battery to not be detected.
