Get started
Five steps, once. Afterwards the screen reads by itself — without app, account or internet.
-
1
Connect power
USB-C, or rear cable to the battery: red is plus, black is minus, 5–23 V. Always use a 1 A fuse.
-
2
Open settings and turn on WiFi
Keep your finger on the screen for one second. Swipe to the third page, NETWORK, and turn on “WiFi”. The pages have no numbers on the screen. The dots under the title show where you are, and the green one should be number three.
-
3
Connect the phone to the Voltvik-XXXX network
The network begins with Voltvik- and four uppercase characters, for example Voltvik-BE84. It is open and never asks for a password. If it does not appear immediately, wait 20 seconds.
-
4
Open 192.168.4.1 and choose language
The setup page often appears by itself. If not, type the address in the browser. The page starts in English: to pick another language choose Language, set for example Norsk and press Save language.
-
5
Press Add all found devices
Voltvik finds the equipment itself — hold the screen close to the equipment, not the phone. Then press Save at the bottom of each section.

Full instructions, troubleshooting, Victron keys and the list of supported equipment.
Good to know
- If you use the rear cable, the recessed side button must be pressed once after every startup.
- The “no internet access” message on the phone is normal while you are on the setup network. Stay connected.
- Victron requires an Instant Readout key from VictronConnect — one per device. It is not the Bluetooth PIN code.
- If it says “Waiting for data …” right after startup, that is normal. Give the radio half a minute.
