Strange output, why?

I get some strange output from VRM.

The reading from the Smartshunt in de lower left corner seems not to be updated.

I would have expected an empty box as when the selected battery monitor is the shunt, the details are shown in the battery box above it.

When that small box turns up from a SmartShunt, it is the auxiliary input, on a boat or vehicle often used for the starter battery and can be renamed as starter battery. Are you using the auxiliary input, if not turn it off in the settings and deselect it as a displayed battery.

Thanks, indeed i have connected the aux input of the SmartShunt to the starter battery.
I changed the name via Remote Console, but then the name of the shunt is changed everywhere.
Is there a way of changing only the name in the little box?

[pwfarnell]

Yes there is a place to name this.

Go to the settings menu > system setup > Battery Measurements > Auxiliary Measurements

clicking on that reveals the screen to rename it.

Thanks, i will try that the next time i am near the system.

You can do it on VRM through remote console if you have that enabled.

Hi,
I have that enabled, but I found no possibility to put in a name for the little box e.q. the auxiliary measurement.
Update: Yeah, I found it. Thank you very much
