INSTALLING AND CONNECTING LYNK II TO THE VE.CAN NETWORK
Connecting LYNK II to the VE.Can Network
Before connecting LYNK II to the VE.Can network ensure that the Victron GX device uses firmware version 2.89 or later. Also, ensure the CAN out pins on the LYNK II are configured correctly. Refer to CAN HARDWARE TERMINATION AND CAN OUT PIN CONFIGURATION.
Insert one end of a CAT5e or higher communication cable into the LYNK II CAN out port and the other end into one of the two VE.Can ports (A-B) on the back of the Victron device. As the LYNK II is internally terminated, the external terminator provided with the GX is not required.
