@Carl

At this point no.

There are no comms cable connections.

With the bmv as an energy meter is the only way currently.

Do you have BT model?

You need to configure the BMV or SmartShunt as DC meter (and to make it display on the graphical overview, please ask @Kevin Windrem, the author of GuiMods, otherwise it will show on the Device list:

shunts programmed as DC Meter types may show on the flow pages depending on sub type.

DC System will show in the DC System tile on all flow pages (Victron stock or GuiMods), replacing the estimated/calculated value.

Alternator, Wind Generator, Fuel Cell, Motor Drive, AC Charger will show up on the GuiMods DC and/or AC coupled pages. What shows depends on other devices present and whether you've selected AC coupled or DC coupled flow page.
