Connecting Pytes V5 to Cerbo GX questions

Good day.

I'm trying to confirm how to connect these two components. The Pytes manual talks about needing a custom Ethernet cable to connect to the cerbo. Can anyone confirm that's the case for the V5?

Also I was wondering if there are any additional settings I need to configure on my 250/100 or MultiPlus or does the Cerbo look after handling charge parameters for the V5 once its connected?

Please let me know.

Thanks

Have you read the victron/Pytes setup doc?

I have a few times. Still uncertain on proper cable type that works with the V5 and Cerbo.

The docs have the pin outs. Best start there.

Would agree the Pytes docs are a bit crummy.
