2 MPPT controllers with venus on Pi

I have 2 MPPT controllers 1 connected to a Pi using the Victron usb cable. Do I need another USB cable connected to the second MPPT to report the state of charge for that unit or will the VE smart Network synchronise the charge across the 2 units and report the overall state of the system?

You'll need to connect it to the Pi with another VE.Direct cable.
