Cerbo VECan SmartShunt 500 to Raymarine

My setup is

Axiom Plus 12 with Lighthouse 3.13.103

Cerbo 2.63

SmartShunt500

It all works with the HTML5 App

Now I want to configure it working via VECan

When I look in the Axiom > Network I see a

- Cerbo

- Unknown n2k device SmartShunt 500A

- Unkonwn n2k device SmartShunt 500A/50mV 0000501

The Service battery Volt-Amp-SOC-TimeLeft are displayed correctly but the Starter battery does not show.

I am aware of these topics, but I need some advice how to change the data instances in the Cerbo

You should not need too change any data instances, if the battery starter voltage is on the second input of the Smart Shunt.

Have you told the Axiom that you have two batteries. It is in the system settings somewhere, not at my Axiom so cant oroivide any more guidance than that.

The only time you may need to modify the data instance is when you have multiple Smart Shunts and/or BMVs

@Bathnm Now that I have told the Axiom that I have 2 batteries all the values of the SmartShunt are shown over the VECan<>NMEA2000 interface

Thanks!

No problems. It caught me out for a while. Raymarine was really great at helping find the issue. I was trying to see 4 different batteries.
