## Requirements
You need to have a Victron Energy GX (what ever the one you have) and have setup
IP on the system.
See [Modbus Configuration](Modbus.md) for more information
## Installation of plugin
Install `pip3`:
``` shell
sudo apt install python3-pip
```
Install `domoticz`:
``` shell
curl -sSL install.domoticz.com | sudo bash
```
Make sure that the `plugins` folder exists in the `domoticz` folder.
Install the plugin:
``` shell
cd domoticz
git clone https://github.com/xbeaudouin/victron-energy-domoticz.git
cd plugins
ln -s ../victron-energy-domoticz/mppt .
```
Go to the plugin folder and install all required addons:
``` shell
cd domoticz/plugins/mppt
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
```
Once that is done, restart domoticz:

## MPPT plugin
Once plugins installed, a new hardware will be available : 'Victron Energy MPPT over GX + Modbus"
To add the MPPT plugin add the following :
- Name : Victron_MPPT_1 (for example)
- GX IP Address : the IP address of your GX
- GX port Number : 502 should good (this is the default, but in case of this change)
- Modbus address : 229 (or depending of your setup you can have several MPPT on your system, adapt it as you need)
- If you want plenty of debug stuff (usefull to fix a bug) you can enable that.
