Solar Charge Controller low Temp shut off

Hello community hope all is well. I have a question for y’all though. I have a V.E Bus Smart Dongle it’s attached to one of my two batteries for the temperature reading. I noticed my Solar charge Controller has a low Temperature shut-off. Can I use the V.E Bus Smart Dongle on the V.E Smart networking as the temperature gauge to shut off my solar charge controller if the batteries are too cold. Or do I need to buy a Victron Smart battery Sense instead to make sure my Solar charger doesn’t charge when the temperature is to low.

Thank you for answering. but, unfortunately that’s not the question I was asking. What I want to know is if the built in temp sensor on the V.E smart bus will allow the solar charger controller to know when to cease charging if the batteries are to cold.
