Can I connect 2 SMART SHUNTS to a CERBO GX?

Hi there,

I have a CERBO GX installed on my boat with a SMART SHUNT connected on Ve-Direct port 1 to monitor both start and service battery which are both 12V AGM.

I want to add a second smartshunt to monitor the battery used for the trolling motor which is a 24V LiFePo4 battery. Is there any particular issue in connecting this second SMART SHUNT to the Ve-Direct port 2 on the same CERBO ?

Thanks for you reply.

S.

Hi @stefano@novello.me,

this is no problem. The 2nd shunt and its data will become visible under devices in the Cerbo GX.

I knwo this is an old post, but is that confirmed? I have read that only 1 smart-shunt's data will be displayed. I have an Rpi version of the Cerbo and can confirm that I can only see 1 of the shunts.
