Smart Solar & BMV with Venus

Other than temperature compensation, does networking these two devices through the Venus yield any more "intelligent" charging profiles in the Smart Solar MPPT?

If you activate DVCC it will share battery voltage (SVS) & temperature (STS) as measured by the BMV with your MPPT (temperature only if the BMV has a temperature sensor connected).

It will also allow you to set an overall charge current limit including all connected charge devices in the system (MPPT & Multi for example).

There are future updates in the works where charge current as measured by the BMV will also be shared, but that's not available right now. When this feature is released the charge current will be able to be used to end absorption phase which is a significant improvement.
