Low temperature cutoff for Smart MPPT and Quattro ?

I have a Quattro and Smart MPPT. Both would be normally connected over winter. I'm planning to have LiFePO4 batteries and want low temp charging cutoff for less than 5DegC. I also have a BMV-700 and am planning to integrate with a CCGX.
Can 1 temperature sensor tell both the Quattro and MPPT to stop charging below my cutoff ?
Which temp sensor and how/where should it be connected ? Or am I best getting 2 sensors one for the Quattro direct and one for the Smart MPPT.

To answer my own question. I'm now deploying my LiFePO4 batteries. I'm using an Electrodacus SBMS0 with temp probe. The SBMS0 is in charge of all charging/discharging. It stops charging on any high volt condition and on low (or high) temp limits.
