Discover the latest VRM updates: improved installation overview, map functions, and smart tags for efficient Fleet Management.

Victron dealers and installers are expanding their installation fleets, and we are seeing an impressive increase in the number of VRM users who now control not just hundreds but thousands of systems. VRM has recently launched new features and improvements based on feedback from Fleet Management teams.

Improved installation overview

The majority of updates are concentrated on the installation overview in VRM, where all websites linked to your VRM account are displayed. For Fleet Management, this is the nerve center of operations – quick access to the right information is crucial.

New additions

  • Add button: Now located at the top for faster handling.
  • Improved search field: More prominent and requires fewer clicks.
  • Total fleet: Moved to the top with the number of systems and active alarms.

Alarm management and quick menus

A new dropdown menu shows all active alarms and allows you to click directly to advanced data. If the alarm has documentation, such as MPPT or VE.Bus error codes, you can see descriptions and troubleshooting suggestions.

  • Equipment types: Generator models or lithium batteries.
  • Special installations: Solar pumps, hybrid generators.
  • System size: Show only solar panels over 10 kW.
