Modes of operation
The dongle can operate both as a primary and a background information source. It will assume either
role automatically depending on whether a GX device (CCGX/VenusGX/OctoGX) is present in the
system.
Due to restrictions in the VE.Bus communication protocol only one device can access data such as
power readings.
