Overview

Installer

Fewer site visits. More recurring revenue.

With VisuShip you solve most problems right from your desk — and earn on every system you install, year after year.

Less work

You sit at your computer and look straight into your customer's system via VS-Cloud. Many problems get solved remotely — no drive to the boat required.

More money

Attractive partner terms — hardware- and cloud-based. We'll send you the details once you're registered.

Simple to install

A real-world example

A DC-DC converter charges the service battery from the starter battery while underway. In the marina, when the starter battery's charger is on, the same thing happens — unwanted.

Classic solution

An extra relay with ignition-sense or shore-power detection, plus the matching wiring.

With VisuShip

Map the same behavior purely in software via the Generator/Engine module — 2 clicks, no extra hardware.

A base set — NMEA2000, a few switch outputs, Victron connection — takes 4–8 hours to install. Experienced installers can do several systems in a single day, e.g. 3 boats of a charter fleet side by side.

The Most Common Question

But Victron Connect Is Free, Isn't It?

True — and for a pure Victron system, the app is a solid, free solution. The difference shows up as soon as more than one brand is on board, or the customer wants more than just readouts.

Comparison	Victron Connect / VRM	VisuShip
Brands	Victron only	Victron, Mastervolt, NMEA2000, WAGO, CZone — one interface
Remote access	Yes, but only for Victron/VE.Direct devices on the GX, and must be enabled separately (VRM two-way communication)	Yes, for every connected brand out of the box, no extra setup
Operation	Each device operated individually via its own submenu/screen	All devices controlled directly on the dashboard, no submenus
Custom linking logic	Only via Node-RED: requires a firmware switch, a beta feature, and writing your own automation	SPS module built into the regular interface, no coding – plus ready-made automation modules for the most common cases
Alerting	VRM sends email/push for alarms, but no Telegram/SMS; per user reports, alerts in the app itself can't be acknowledged or muted	Telegram, SMS, email — freely configurable
Camera, AIS, weather	No	Yes, built in
For you as an installer	No recurring business	Partner program, recurring revenue

What about Node-RED?

Node-RED on the Cerbo GX can technically do an enormous amount — arbitrary conditions, custom logic, integration with almost anything. But only if you switch the firmware, enable a beta feature, and build and permanently maintain the automation flows yourself. For the customer who just wants to know whether the generator is running, that's no solution.

Node-RED hands you the soldering iron and the schematic. VisuShip hands you the finished device.

Not Just SPS

Ready-Made Automation Modules for the Most Common Cases

SPS is the flexible all-rounder for special cases. For most standard automations, there's already a ready-made module – no custom linking rule needed.

Temperature Automation

Thermostat for heating/cooling relays, with hysteresis and run-on time.

Voltage Automation

Universal threshold switch, e.g. undervoltage protection or charger start.

Voltage On

Switches once a voltage is exceeded – e.g. turns the boiler on as soon as shore power is present.

Charger Automation

Automatic recharging at low state of charge, with no customer action needed.

Generator & Engine

Generator auto-start with retry logic, plus automatic DCDC charging while underway.

Timer

Time-of-day or sunrise/sunset scheduling, up to 12 channels.

On-Board Mode

Suppresses known onboard alarms, active again as usual once you leave the boat.

Linking (SPS)

The flexible toolkit for everything the modules above don't cover – no Node-RED needed.
