Can someone please provide a pointer to the location on Victron's site of the full resolution version of this diagram (attached)? I've hunted by various means and can't find it. It shows an Arco Zeus alternator regulator integrated into a Victron battery storage system.
I will ask a separate question about how the battery voltage sensing wires from the Arco Zeus need to be connected to the Victron system. I'm hearing that holes should be drilled into the Smart Shunt?? No thanks!
Here it is.

I think this is the same one. Will zoom in on a pc. Give it a few seconds to resolve the detail. https://www.victronenergy.com/upload/documents/Quattro-II-5kVA-230VAC-24VDC-600Ah-Li-Lynx-Smart-BMS-distributors-Cerbo-GX-touch-generator-MPPT-Extra-Alternator-Zeus-regulator.pdf
Hi John. Yep, the link is the same. :-)
So now to figure out how the Zeus' battery voltage sense wires need to be connected. My system has a Smart Shunt, a Smart BMS CL 12-100 and a Cerbo. I'm thinking that connecting the battery voltage sense wires to the positive and negative bus bars should work, but Andre Cormier (who worked on the design of the Zeus?) prefers to drill holes in the Smart Shunt! Yikes! I won't be doing that. This is where he offers this advice. Look at 12:25 in the video. It should start there.

'Busbars' might be a bit far away. You could try with tabs on the Smartshunt terminals..
