The GlobalLink 520 supports VE.Direct protocol and Instant Readout via Bluetooth. The latter is used for wireless data communication between the GlobalLink 520 and compatible smart devices. The data from devices connected via VE.Direct and Instant Readout can then be monitored via the VRM portal. See also the Victron smart devices and RuuviTags chapter.

Note that even though the Peak Power Pack has a VE.Direct port, the GlobalLink 520 is not compatible to it.
Please also note that the VE.Bus Smart Dongle (and therefore a VE.Bus inverter/charger) cannot be connected to the GlobalLink 520 via Bluetooth.
