I topped off my batteries to 100% state of Charge, but after using or discharging them for a while the SmartShunt, which is plugged into the CCGX show a different of about 15 -20% . The Shunt is networked with the MPPT chargers. Do I need to turn something on in the CCGX for it to communicate with the shunt.

Yes, the smartshunt needs to be selected as your battery monitor in the color control menu.

So the SmartShunt dose not show up on the battery monitor. I plugged the Shunt into VE Direct port on the CCGX. I checked the connection it looked good, I wish I would have switch it with the other port and or the USB port. I’ll try that tomorrow. Unless there’s a better Idea?

I guess the photo didn’t come through, but on the Battery Monitor screen three chooses, Automatic,(which is checked) VE.bus device on VE.bus, and No battery monitor.
