I’ve got 2 Quattro units, both 48/10000
I’d like to run 2 separate 240v circuits for 2 separate jobs, but monitor both through the Cerbo.
Will the Cerbo accept this, and display info for me on the main screen?
Many thanks in advance

Technically you can, but there are limitations.
The thing is that there can only be 1 ‘system’ on the VE Bus.
This system may be a standalone unit, parallel units, units in three phase or a parallel / three phase combo.
Two standalone units on the same VE Bus is not supported.
The workaround is to connect your 2nd system to a MK3-USB adapter that you connect to the GX but even then it will not have all of the features and options of the ‘main’ VE Bus system.
If I remember correctly it will be monitored and logged but probably that’s about it.

Thanks very much, that’s a great start.
So if I went the MK3 route, the main screen showing battery SOC, PV generation etc, would only show the AC load from one of the two inverters?
I’d need to look at the total current into/out of the battery to figure out how much draw the system was experiencing as a whole?
But the second inverter would show in the device list, and I’d be able to see what it had been doing historically, and is there were any warnings etc?

I never tried such a setup so I have no idea what it would look like.
There should be a post somewhere on the internet (the old forum probably) that has more info, because that’s where I remember my info from 
You probably won’t see the 2nd Quattro on the main VRM page but it should be visible in the Advanced section.
If you want a single portal with the summary of all energy flows, you could try building one with Node Red.
As far as I know that’s going to be your best route.
