# ENP-RS232-VED
# RS-232-VED Module
The RS-232-VED Module monitor and manage Victron Energy Inverters with RS-232 port and VE.Direct Protocol. It sends the collected data to the Enapter Gateway and Cloud via secure wireless connection. The RS-232-VED Module is based on Enapter RS-232 Module.
To connect the ENP-RS232-VED Module to Victron Energy Inverters you need the Victron Energy VE.Direct to RS232 Cable.
The connection cable to the Victron Energy VE.Direct to RS232 Cable is required additional 5 V DC power supply.
