RNG SyNC is a Renogy¹ RS232/RS485 compatible WiFi and Bluetooth adapter. Checkout the product here. Tested with Rover/Wanderer/Adventurer series charge controllers.
a. Pre-installed Pico W
- All pre-installed Picos come with firmware already baked into it.
- Connect the RNG SyNC module to your Rover using RJ12/RJ45 cable. If you are using Wanderer/ Adventurer power the device through USB.
- Configure with bluetooth using this webpage -> RNG SyNC App. Read more about using the app on Wiki/BLE App.
b. Using your own Pico W
If you opted for your own Pico, check manual configuration steps wiki/Manual-configuration
- RS232 variant: You will need an RJ12 cable to connect to your charge controller with an RS232 port. You can buy one from Amazon or your local store. Make sure it's 6P6C marked as "straight wired" (link).
- RS485 variant: You need RJ45 patch cable if buying the RS485 variant (link)
After the initial bootstrap settles in:
- 🟢 Green blinking every 3 seconds - Device is healthy and connected
- 🟡 Yellow blinking every 3 seconds - Device is healthy but not connected to either Rover or WiFi
- ⭕ Red blinking - Temporary error
- 🔴 Red steady - Fatal error occured
You can either monitor through WiFi page (local network only)- Type the IP address shown in the BLE app into your browser tab (like http://192.168.0.XX) or upload your data to third party services.
