Description
xVictron Energy CANUSB Interface
The Victron CANUSB interface is a CAN bus to USB converter designed for use with Victron Energy systems. It allows a PC or laptop to communicate directly with devices on a CAN bus network, enabling configuration, monitoring and diagnostics without requiring a dedicated GX device. It is suited to installers and engineers who need direct CAN bus access during commissioning or fault-finding.
Key Features
- Converts CAN bus signals to USB for direct PC connectivity.
- Compatible with Victron Energy CAN bus networks used across inverter, battery and BMS installations.
- Compact and lightweight at 0.06 kg, suitable for use as a portable diagnostic tool.
- Connects via standard USB port, requiring no specialist hardware beyond a PC or laptop.
- Enables direct communication with CAN-enabled Victron devices for configuration and monitoring tasks.
Product Overview
The CANUSB interface bridges a CAN bus network and a standard USB port on a Windows PC or laptop. CAN bus is the communication protocol used between many Victron devices, including certain battery management systems, inverter/chargers and third-party BMS units. Without a GX device present, direct CAN bus access is otherwise unavailable, making this interface a practical tool for installers working on systems during commissioning or servicing.
The interface is particularly useful when connecting to battery systems that communicate via CAN bus, such as those using the VE.Can or compatible third-party BMS protocols. It allows the installer to read live data, verify communication between devices and carry out configuration directly from a laptop. The unit is bus-powered via USB, so no separate power supply is required during use.

Installation Notes
The CANUSB interface is intended for use by qualified installers and engineers familiar with CAN bus networks and Victron Energy systems. Ensure the correct software drivers are installed on the PC before use. When working on live battery or inverter systems, follow appropriate electrical safety procedures. This device is a diagnostic and configuration tool and should not be left permanently connected in a production installation without confirming compatibility with the system design.
