Help with understanding CAN bus MPPTs connect and display

Hi, I have 4 Smart MPPT 150/70 Can Bus connected together, they are charging fine as a Total input from my panels on the BMV but the CCGX only shows the Watts from one of the MPPT's.

Cannot understand the complete lack of settings out there on how to actually setup the latest VE Can Victron MPPT's, with a Victron Multiplus, Victron BMV and Victron CCGX, I have got it working in a fashion but as you can see from above not quite right.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Can you describe/confirm how you have the 4 MPPT units connected together and to the GX device?

Hi, have used the victron supplied VE can RJ45 cables between each MPPT and onto the CCGX and installed terminator plugs in both open ends(one in CCGX and one in first MPPT)

Have you plugged a terminator into the last MPPT and the 2nd Can-port of the CCGX?
