@Stavarda What exactly do you want to know?

"A modular DC bus bar, with locations for four DC fuses. It will monitor the status of each fuse, and indicate its condition with a LED on the front. Part of the modular Lynx distribution system."

How the Lynx distrubition system works. do you need the Lynx Shunt or could you use a 712 BMV and its shunt? Do i need two Lynx Distrubition units or one Distrubirition and one power, planning the set up of 8 12 v 200a smarts to give a 24v system.

Also is there a maximun length of the positive cables to the Lynx unit ?

Hi @Staverda,

best to also use a distributor for the batteries, but if the cable length from battery to distributor is long, it's better to mount fuses closer to batteries.

you can use either the BMV or the Lynx shunt, the Lynx shunt is the easiest to implement, and also has room for the main fuse.
