Which Batteries Need the VE.Can CAN-Bus BMS Type B Cable?

Type B is for specific third-party CAN-bus battery brands — check your battery manufacturer's documentation or the Victron compatibility manual to confirm Type A vs. Type B. Using the wrong type can cause BMS communication errors or charge/discharge limits not being recognized.

Victron Type A vs. Type B BMS Cable

• Type A and Type B use different CAN-bus data mappings for different battery brands
• Type B supports the battery brands listed in Victron's CAN-bus BMS compatibility list under 'Type B'
• Both are 1.8m VE.Can (RJ45) to battery-side connections

Connecting a Third-Party Lithium Battery to Victron GX CAN Bus

Connect the RJ45 end to your GX device's VE.Can port (set the port to CAN-bus BMS 250 kbps in settings), connect the other end per your battery's BMS pinout, and the GX will display SoC, voltage, current, and BMS limits for coordinated charging with your MultiPlus or MPPT charger.
