Can I use my Cyrix-li-ct 230A for start assist?

I asked the same question some days ago, but it seems like it was closed before it was answered, so I'll try again.


I would like to use my Cyrix-li-ct 230A for start assist.


The online datasheet for says I can: https://www.victronenergy.com/upload/documents/Datasheet-Cyrix-Li-ion-230-A-EN.pdf


However, the datasheet that came with my device does not indicate this:


This online picture shows two yellow cables (and one black).
My device only an outlet where I can connect the "Control cable for Cyrix 12/24-230", and thus only have one red (and one black).

As my picture show "VE Bus BMS", and the online shows "...V2", maybe I have an an older device?
Can I still use the red the same way as the one for Start assist in the online picture?

I asked the shop were I bought the Cyrix. They tested and said:

"When adding voltage to the red cable, the relay in the Cyrix opened for 30 seconds".

I will therefore will add a button on the red cable to as a start assist.
