Connecting different systems with different voltaje to the Venus GX

I have a main system at 48V (MPPT Bluesolar 150/60, Multiplus 48/5000/70, BMV-700 and Venus GX) and another small 12V system on the side with a Victron Phoenix 12/375 inverter. I would like to monitor that system too. Is it possible to connect this unit to a port on the Venus GX to read its data remotely or will that confuse the whole 48V system?

Venus GX - VGX

I do not think, that adding a 2nd BMV from another system to Venus is a good idea.

Maybe consider to change the BMV 700 to a 702 and monitor the 12V system as a "starter battery"

Yes, I thought about that option too. All I really wanted to do was to remotely access the inverter, but that could perhaps mix up things for the main system.
