Multiplus voltage & temp sense wires

Do I need to connect/install the Multiplus voltage sense & temp wires if I have a SmartShunt fitted?

I'm presuming the SmartShunt will report the voltage & temp, and distribute via Ve. Bus. and the Multiplus would get the info this way?

If you have a GX device, the multi can use the Smart Shunts voltage and temp data.

Please refer to the CCGX manual, and brush up on DVCC.

The SmartShunt don't have a VE.Bus and the MultiPlus don't have VE.direct.
So they can't communicate with each other. You need a GX device for that.
