Does anyone have a diagram for how to set up the smart shunt with a parallel set up? I have two 115ah Batteries set up in parallel in my camper and want to add a shunt to monitor. The diagrams in the manual are only in series or I missed it.
Cheers

Dual Battery set up
The shunt must be installed into the combined minus path like this
+-----------------+
| |
+----| + Battery 1 - |----+
| | | | +---------+
| +-----------------+ | | |
<----+ +-----| Shunt |----> to loads/chargers
| +-----------------+ | | |
| | | | +---------+
+----| + Battery 2 - |----+
| |
+-----------------+
Simply consider both parallel batteries as a single huge one. Just draw a virtual frame around both batteries and forget that there are actually two batteries inside that frame.
Simple mark up. Best to take the feeds from opposite batteries.
