Identification of Parts
Operation
Connection
When connecting multiple Renogy devices to Bluetooth through the HUB for
the first time, each device needs to be connected to the HUB and registered on
Renogy DC Home App SEPARATELY. This process is used to assign an address to
each device, which is equivalent to registering an ”ID card”. After each
device performs data transmission, all devices can be connected to the HUB and
operate together with the App. The “ID card” won’t be affected by the power
failure, so this process is only needed at the first connection.
Step 1
Connect the battery to the POWER port of the HUB using the power cable;Press
the orange spring terminal, insert the power cable,and connect it tightly.
Step 2
Connect the BT-2 Bluetooth module to the PRIMARY port of the HUB; Put the
switch at RS485.
Step 3
Connect one Renogy device to the HUB; Register the device on the DC Home App
via BT-2 Bluetooth module.
Take the Smart Lithium Battery as an example. Use a communication cable to
connect the UP port of the battery to any SECONDARY port of the HUB. Open the
Renogy DC Home app, connect your phone/tablet with BT-2 via Bluetooth. After
successfully registering the battery as a device on the App, you can read the
battery data on your phone.
Note：In this step, only one SECONDARY port can be used to connect to devices.
Step 4
Before connecting the next device, disconnect the previous device from the
SECONDARY port;
Repeat Step 3 to connect another Renogy device.
The diagram shows connecting a charge controller to the HUB.
Step 5
Repeat Step 4 to connect any other devices.
The diagram shows connecting an inverter to the HUB.
Step 6
The last step is to reconnect all registered devices to the HUB; All devices
will be automatically connected to the App.
