Hi,

is it possible to use the Victron MK3 USB to VECan adapter to connect to a BMS via can?

If so, what would I need to do to achieve this.

Regards Magnus

I'm not sure. I did not find anything on the Victron product page or in their on-line search about such a product. A link would help.

Got it. No, this is to for VE.Bus, not VE.Can (aka CANbus). Victron does sell a USB to VE.Can adapter but if I recall, it's pretty expensive. There are many USB to CANbus adapters on the market for less money. Pick one that supports GS Lib, not SLCAN.
