multiplus 12/1600-16 230v multiple temperature sensors

wiring-plan-v2.jpgHello

I would appreciate help and advice regarding my first installation.


The lithium batteries in this installation are: 2no x TN Power Lithium 12V 216Ah Leisure Battery LiFePO4


The question is regarding temperature sensors. Having read all the documentation and various sources online the best I can figure out is that in order to monitor the temperatures of both batteries I need to connect each battery temp sensor to the Cerbo GX unit and ignore the one supplied intended to be fitted to the Multiplus. Is this correct?


Wiring diagram attached.


Thank you for your help.

@dantmjones

It is the multiplus temperature sensor you would need to use on the Cerbo for temperature monitoring if you are planning to use the temp sensor inputs.

If you are planning on using the temp sensor for preventing cold charging then using it either plugged into the multiplus or the GX would work, your setup/programming would also have to change.

@Alexandra Thank you for your help.

Do I connect the battery temperature sensors to the GX and connect the GX to the Multiplus temp sensor terminal?
