Few questions to Node red and Victron

I installed a Venus OS large on the Cerbo GX. All is working, but I want ask few questions :

1. From which where is better read data - as example batery data I can read from Battery but also from System

2. Is it possible make gauge two in one ? Like actual production and actual consumption in one gauge

3. Is it possible make a dynamic gauge min and max - means connect more inputs and somehow define what is used as minimum and what as maximum

Thank you.

Hi,

1) It depends on your system configuration, but if you have a BMV or a smart shunt use that for battery State of Charge. You paid extra to have a quality battery monitor so use it :-)

2 + 3) Which gauges are you referring to? VRM, NodeRed Dashboard or Signal-K? Probably best to add screen shots of what you are asking about.

to 2+3 - it's gauge for NodeRed Dashboard. Like SoC. When battery is full charged is gauge red and when is empty it's green.
