On my yacht, I have a BMV 712 connected to monitor my "house" battery and to display the "starter" battery as the aux display. (This is all connected as per the Victron installation specs). My two batteries can be selected via a manual 1, 2, both or off switch. I have the settings on the BMV set to the house battery specs as this is the battery I want to monitor. Under normal use, I switch to only draw the house loads, (lights, navigation, etc). This displays the SOC correctly if I only charge via the solar panel. The problem I have is when I opt to charge both batteries through the alternator from the engine. The current flowing into the batteries is then obviously divided to charge both batteries, but the BMV counts the current flow and then allocates it show that the house battery is being charged. This results in the BMV displaying a 100% charged "house" battery, but the voltage is only 12.5V which is nowhere near fully charged.
How can I wire/ setup my monitor to correctly display the SOC for my house battery, but still allow me to be able to isolate the two batteries and connect them in the case of charging via the alternator?
