-====== Smart Battery Sense manual ======
+Moved to: https://www.victronenergy.com/media/pg/17801-Smart_Battery_Sense_Manual/index.html?lang=en
-===== 1. Introduction =====
-The Smart Battery Sense is a wireless battery voltage- and temperature- sensor for Victron MPPT Solar Chargers.
-The Solar Charger uses these measurements to optimize its charge parameters. This will improve charging-efficiency and prolong battery life.
-The connection between the Smart Battery Sense and the Solar Charger(s) wireless: VE.Smart Network, a wireless technology that is based on Bluetooth Smart.
-Simple to install & configure, the Smart Battery Sense comes with an inline fuse and pre-crimped eyelets. And adhesive tape on the back, to mount it on the battery.
-=== System design & component selection ===
-  * Check the [[victronconnect:ve-smart-networking#vesmart_networking_compatible_products|VE.Smart Networking compatible products list]] for compatible Solar Chargers.
-  * The Smart Battery Sense is not needed, nor allowed, in systems that also have a Color Control GX or Venus GX, see [[victronconnect:ve-smart-networking#faq|FAQ Q6]] for more info.
-  * The Smart Battery Sense is not needed for installations that already have a BMV-712 with its temperature sensor accessory.
-  * For installations with a BMV-702 + temperature sensor accessory, consider adding a [[https://www.victronenergy.com/accessories/ve-direct-bluetooth-smart-dongle|VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle]] instead of a //Smart Battery Sense//.
-===== 2. Installation =====
-Connect the unit's two eyelets to your battery terminals and attach it directly onto the battery-body using its self-adhesive strip.
-For battery banks consisting of multiple individual batteries, connect the Smart Battery Sense unit on any one of the batteries.
-In case the supplied bat+ and bat- cables are not long enough, their length can be increased. Make sure to use the same, or thicker, gauge cable.
-===== 4. Configuration =====
-See this below video. Also, see the step by step procedure as documented in the [[victronconnect:ve-smart-networking|]] manual.
