Improved Fleet Management features for VRM

Victron transmitters and installers are selecting their installation fleets and we are seeing an impressive reduction in the number of VRM users who are now in control only hundreds but THOUSANDS of systems.

VRM just added some new features and improvements specifically in response toå feedback we have received from these large system fleets.

The majority of these updates are concentrated in the installation overview part of VRM, where all the sites linked to your VRM -user account is displayed.

For users who manage a single or a For some websites, the installation overview may not be a heavily used section. Typically, they would click through to a specific website to view the dashboard, advanced data widgets, or device list.

But for fleet operators, the installation overview becomes the nerve center of their business. The ability to quickly find the websites you want and get Access to the information you need is crucial.

New additions

Even små Improvements to the user interface can significantly improve the installer's experience when managing these large fleets.

We have introduced a new "Add " button at the top of the installation overview. This eliminates the need to scroll through hundreds or thousands of installations when adding a new one.

We also have; made the search more prominent, requires fewer clicks and makes it faster to use.

The total fleet has been moved to the top of the installation list, preventing them from getting lost at the bottom. This feature now also displayså the total number of systems and the number of active alarms (if any).

The quick drop-down menu allows you to see all active alarms for your fleet and then click to do; directly to advanced data for that location for further investigation.

If the alarm comes with specific documentation (such as the MPPT and VE.Bus fault codes) you can click through for the description to see exactly what the alarm code means and find troubleshooting suggestions to clear it.

Map edits

The systems visible on the map now filters the visible systems shown in the installation list below. This can be combined with another new feature: the visible map coordinates are now shown in the URL fält of the web page.

This means you can customize the visible system views to your liking and then bookmark the page in your browser for quick access access.

This function becomes even more powerful for systems with a dynamic position set by a GPS. For example, if you operate a fleet of vehicles with Victron systems that include a GX unit and GPS module, you can create a location bookmark and filter view to only display systems in your service shop.

< p>Please note that the visibility of the filter may vary depending onå the width of your web browser window. Different devices may display a different list of systems from the same link if the screen resolution varies.

We have added a button to; the map to reset the zoom level to see all your installations.

Tags

The clarity and usability of the tag selection area has ;reservedly edited.

VRM automatically generates tags for a website when it is added to an installation group, and even when a linked installation is part of a group group.

VRM also applieså automatically tags if a site has an active alarm. Alarm labels are specially color-coded for increased visibility.

Some installers also store; to dozens of custom tags to manage their thousands of systems.

Tag visibility can now be turned on; or by type to reduce clutter, and tags are now also sorted; in alphabetical order.

The tags you have actively selected are now visible in the browser's URL field. This allows you to create browser bookmarks for your specific tag groups, saving time if there are some you want to see regularly or want to share with another user who has access to the same installations .

Tags are an indispensable tool when managing large groups of systems. They are flexible and can be added to filter your installations on; whichever way you prefer.

The ways to use them are practically unlimited and depend entirely on; your team's needs.

Some examples of tags we've seen include:

Service Agreement Locations: Multiple systems can be viewed offline onå due to network problems on location, but you only want to filter to show those where the customer has paid extra as part of a service agreement with the installer for active system monitoring and service on; high level for that type of error.
Different types of equipment: For example, a certain generator type or managed lithium battery.
Special customers with multiple sites: Tags are more flexible than just a prefix to the system name.

A special type of installation: Solar pumps, various models of hybrid generator units or container systems.

System sizes: Show only systems with solar panels greater than 10 kW.

Installations: Filter to show which systems may be nearing end of life or need a time-based service call.
There are thousands of actively used system tags in VRM, such as; this only begins to imagine their potential.

Note that users will still only see the installations they have access to. When you share a tag view, the installations displayed may vary between different logged in users.
