BMV 712 6V Setup

I have 6-Harris Plus GC2RV 6V Batteries and 2- 12V engine starter batteries that I want to monitor with my BMV 712. I have the unit wired correctly but am looking for the correct settings for the App and monitor.

Thanks,

BMV Battery Monitor

For programming and understanding the settings, the video is useful.

You would need to know the total AH of your pack of Harris batteries. I see they have quite a few different models in the 6V range, so am not sure which one you are using.

And how did you wire 2x 12V other batteries to it? As far as I know it can only monitor one other battery? Unless they are in series? In any case you will really only get the voltage for the second set it is monitoring.
