Victron Zigbee to RS485 Converter: Wireless Energy Monitoring for GX Devices

Seamless Wireless Integration for Victron Energy Systems

The Victron Zigbee to RS485 converter provides a reliable wireless link between your Victron Energy Meter and a GX device, eliminating the need for long RS485 cable runs. This converter pair uses Zigbee wireless protocol to transmit energy data over distances up to 1600 metres in open air, making it an ideal solution for installations where wired connections are impractical or costly.

Engineered for professional energy management, this converter ensures stable, low-latency communication between your energy meter and monitoring system. It is particularly suited to off-grid solar installations, marine energy systems, and industrial power monitoring where reliable data transmission is critical.

Robust Industrial Design for Harsh Environments

Housed in a rugged metal enclosure with an integrated mounting flange, the converter is built to withstand demanding conditions. It operates across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring consistent performance in extreme climates. The external 2.4GHz dipole antenna enhances signal strength and range, while the green terminal blocks provide secure RS485 and power connections.

With support for a broad DC power input range of 5V to 28V, the converter can be powered directly from a variety of sources, including battery banks and industrial power supplies. An EU-style power adapter is included for standalone operation, adding flexibility to your installation.

Key Features

  • Wireless RS485 extension — replaces physical cabling with a robust Zigbee link
  • Up to 1600 m open-air range — suitable for large properties and remote monitoring
  • Wide 5-28V DC power input — compatible with common system voltages
  • Industrial temperature range — reliable operation from -40°C to 85°C
  • Rugged metal housing — protects against mechanical stress and interference
  • Adjustable 2.4GHz antenna — optimises signal direction for challenging layouts
  • TX/RX status LEDs — provides at-a-glance communication diagnostics
  • Default router configuration — simplifies pairing with the coordinator unit

Simplified Installation and Configuration

The converter comes pre-configured as a Zigbee router with default settings (PAN ID 0x199B, Channel 22 at 2460 MHz), allowing quick pairing with the coordinator unit. The 3-pin RS485 terminal (A, B, GND) accepts standard twisted-pair wiring, and the UART baud rate is set to 38400 bps by default, with options from 9600 to 115200 bps for compatibility with various devices.

This converter is designed specifically for use with Victron Energy Meters and GX devices, ensuring seamless integration into your existing Victron ecosystem. It solves the common problem of RS485 distance limitations and electrical noise interference that can affect wired connections in industrial or mobile environments.

Applications

  • Wireless connection of Victron Energy Meter to Cerbo GX or Color Control GX
  • Remote monitoring of solar production and consumption in large off-grid systems
  • Marine and RV installations where cable routing is difficult
  • Industrial energy management with distributed metering points
  • Retrofit projects where adding new cables is not feasible

By using this wireless converter, you reduce the risk of ground loops and voltage differentials that can occur over long RS485 cable runs, improving overall system reliability.

Very good speakers
Size: Pair
The r51ms are used to compliment my klipsch rp500m speakers and a 12 inch subwoofer in a large living room. By placing the r51m speakers to the outside walls , and the rp500m speakers to the interior, closer to the amplifier, and with the subwoofer set on deep bass only at just enough volume to barely compliment the sound, the large living room is more than sufficiently covered with at least true high fi quality sound, if not true budget audiophile sound. My entire 2.1 system is all klipsch. That's how I want it. I am using them with a high powered tube amplifier, so presence and clarity is awesome. Placement is critical. I was initially disappointed until I switched the r51ms to the spread to the outside walls position, and the rp500ms to the interior, closer to the amplifier. The difference was remarkable. The 2 different klipsch speakers, ie one a rp and the other a r series blend together perfectly with no clash whatsoever because of somewhat more refined sound on the rp500m speakers. The rp500m speakers do sound higher end , but they are supposed to, but with the speakers as outer r51m and inner rp500m, and the klipsch subwoofer at deep bass with just a touch of volume the result is sound of such quality that I can honestly say I can be content and satisfied with it. I can say my system is complete, and no further improvement, upgrades are needed. Tower speakers as primaries are not necessary because of the high quality of sound and the high sensitivity of the 4 klipsch bookshelf speakers and klipsch subwoofer. This saves me money during this rapid inflation period of time. I could easily say that what I have sounds more than good enough to be satisfied and content with without any desire to upgrade further at this point. Shipping speed was excellent via Amazon itself, and the box and speakers arrived in handled with care and new condition. I am not disappointed at all now that the r51m speakers are the outside speakers, spread apart from corner wall to wall to compliment the interior placements of my rp500m speakers by klipsch. Im all klipsch here and I love it. 5 stars categorically. As previously stated, I see no need for primary tower speakers, even in a large living room, and that equals high quality sound and savings of money at the same time. I recommend these speakers. They do more than just do sound quality wise.

Great Sound
Size: Pair
Great things sometimes come in little packages. Powerhouse sound with virtually no input at all. Tight, crisp, and well-made as usual from Klipsch. If you are looking for a powerhouse monitor these are what you want.

Great starter speakers - for the right price.
Size: Pair
A good all-around pair of starter speakers if you're planning on using them as standalones. These will have zero trouble filling a small to medium sized space with rich and detailed sound at low to mid volumes. The bass is adequate for their size. They're not going to knock your socks off on more thumpy genres. I would imagine pairing them with a subwoofer would make quite the difference but for rock and some synth pop, they're pretty sweet. Plus the copper woofers look very striking without the faceplates. That said, I say these are best suited at low to mid volumes because cranked, the higher frequencies can be awfully fatiguing coming out of these speakers. I would not pay anywhere close to the $349 MSRP for these (you can probably find a pair of far superior RP-600Ms for around that price nowadays). Around $150 seems like a sweet spot for the R-51Ms, but the Sony SSCS5s and Fluance Signature bookshelfs are very comparable, if not better sounding for around the same price. Still, these will probably more than satisfactory if you're not expecting to be blown away by them. UPDATE 5/20/25: Can confirm that the subwoofer made a big difference. I was going to retire these since I replaced them with some bigger floor speakers on my main setup but I decided to try them out in place of the factory speakers on the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 I have hooked up to my computer. Not only does the onboard amp seem to drive them okay at not-insane levels of volume - they sound really sweet paired with the 6.5-inch subwoofer. While I won't change my rating, I do highly recommend getting a sub along with these speakers.
