2 smart shunts, which to use as battery protect ( if at all )

Hello, I have 2 Smart Shunts in my camper :

One for the car AGM battery, one for the 158Ah LiFePo Camper Battery, monitoring and reporting via GXS works great.

Main purpose is to monitor voltage, charge & discharge and finally SOC.

Now I ‚detected‘ that I could define one of the shunts as battery protect of choose automatic or none.

Here my 2 questions :

1) the two shunts have the same name in that screen, so which on is for which battery ?
I could unplug one and chose the remaining one .. but will this order stay after a reboot, new firmware ?

2) does it make any sense at all to define one of these shunts a battery protect ?

My LiFePo does not seem to be DVCC compatible and the car battery is AGM.

Regards

Uwe

What do you mean by "battery protect" ?

The smart shunt can only measure voltage and current. It can't switch on/off loads or charging.
