The current Epoch listing identifies the interface but does not list an RJ45 cable in the package contents, so plan to provide a compatible Victron RJ45 UTP cable separately unless you already have one.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #ED1B4A; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Can I use the MK3-USB-C with a MacBook, Windows PC, or Android device?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          Yes. VictronConnect supports the MK3 interface on Windows, macOS, and Android. A modern Mac or PC can use the USB-C connection directly when the port supports data. An Android phone or tablet must support USB host \/ OTG operation, and compatibility should be confirmed for the exact device.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #2E91E5; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Does it work with an iPhone or iPad that has USB-C?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          No. Victron's current documentation states that the wired MK3 component is available for Android, Windows, and macOS, but not iOS. A USB-C connector on an iPhone or iPad does not make the MK3 configuration workflow supported. Use a documented Victron alternative for Apple mobile monitoring.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #5EBB46; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          What software should I use with the MK3-USB-C?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          Use VictronConnect on Windows, macOS, or supported Android devices for compatible status, settings, firmware-update, and diagnostic functions. VEConfigure is Windows-only and remains necessary for certain advanced or legacy functions that are not available in VictronConnect. Check the current Victron guide for your exact product and task.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #ED1B4A; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Which Victron products can I configure with this interface?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          Victron lists Multi, MultiGrid, MultiPlus, MultiPlus-II, Quattro, VE.Bus BMS V2, the inverter\/charger section of supported ECOmulti, EasySolar and EasyPlus products, and inverters equipped with a VE.Bus communication port.

Enter only the exact charging parameters and system settings published for the specific Epoch battery, and follow the required BMS or CAN communication design. The MK3 interface itself does not create battery-to-Victron CAN communication and does not replace a battery-specific communications cable.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #5EBB46; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Can I program a SmartSolar controller or SmartShunt with the MK3?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          No. The MK3 is for documented VE.Bus products. SmartSolar charge controllers, SmartShunts, BMV monitors, and other VE.Direct devices use Bluetooth, a VE.Direct cable, or a VE.Direct-to-USB interface depending on the model and installation.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #ED1B4A; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Should the MK3-USB-C stay connected all the time?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:14px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          Usually not. The MK3 is primarily a commissioning, configuration, firmware, and troubleshooting interface. After setup, disconnect it and store it with your service tools. For permanent monitoring and remote access, use the appropriate Victron GX device or another documented monitoring accessory.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- FINAL NOTE --\u003e\n  \u003csection style=\"background:#F7FAFC; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-radius:14px; padding:22px; margin:34px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:20px; font-weight:700; color:#1A202C; margin:0 0 8px 0; line-height:1.3;\"\u003e\n      Confirm the Exact VE.Bus Workflow Before Connecting\n    \u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\n      Verify the Victron model, VE.Bus port, firmware generation, computer platform, required software, RJ45 cable, battery settings, and installer permissions before commissioning.
