ROAMiQ BLUETTI Control Chip: wiring and installation guide

Connect your ROAMiQ Chip to a BLUETTI EPAD through the RV-C Expand Bus port and enable RV-C communication on firmware V300450112.

What you get in ROAMiQ

With the chip connected, ROAMiQ shows your BLUETTI's battery level, charging, power use, and tank levels, and lets you switch your AC and DC outlets and set your shore charging limit.

Before you start

  • BLUETTI EPAD running firmware V300450112
  • ROAMiQ Chip
  • RJ45 patch cable
  • USB-A to USB-C cable
  • Square double-sided adhesive pad

Install the ROAMiQ Chip

1

Power off the EPAD

Turn off the EPAD before connecting the cables.

2

Mount the ROAMiQ Chip

Apply a square double-sided adhesive pad to the center of the back of the ROAMiQ Chip, then mount it to the back of the EPAD as shown.

3

Connect the RV-C cable

Connect one end of the RJ45 patch cable to the ROAMiQ Chip. Connect the other end to the bottom-left Expand Bus RJ45 port on the back of the EPAD.

Use only the bottom-left Expand Bus port. It is the only RJ45 port on the EPAD that communicates over RV-C.

4

Turn on the 120Ω resistor

Find the 120Ω resistor switches next to the Expand Bus ports. Flip the bottom switch to the ON position.

5

Connect USB power

Connect the USB-A end of the power cable to the EPAD port labeled 5V/1.5A. Connect the USB-C end to the ROAMiQ Chip's USB-C port.

6

Enable RV-C on the EPAD

Turn on the EPAD. Tap the Switches icon to open Switches / Tanks, then tap the Protocols tab on the far right. Make sure Enable RV-C is toggled ON.
