SmartSHUNT is a choice under BATTERY (not under Victron): SmartSHUNT

Subsequently the PINOUT Configuration is put under BATTERY (not Victron).


In Principle (for more information look under VE.Direct ):

  • You need the "Transmit" (TX) from the Victron Device to connect to the GPIO Pin on the ESP32 that is defined as "Receive" (RX)
  • It is not required to also connect the "Receive" (RX) of the Victron Device as the later does not receive anything from the ESP32
  • You need to connect "Ground" (GND) of Victron Device and ESP32
  • IF you are using an ADUM or Levelshifter as explained under VE.Direct, you also need to connect the Power between Victron-ADUM/Levelshjifter-ESP32

Below is an example, if you have PIN 27 and 14 available on your ESP32. The picture below shows

  • where PIN 27 and PIN 14 should be connected to on the Victron Smartshunt
  • what you need to define in the PINOUT Configuration of the OpenDTUonBattery (black square)

How often do you need to re-calibrate your Smartshunt?

Answer: often! Below is the explanation: Busting the 20%-80% SOC myth for LiFePO4 batteries https://youtu.be/DQeUYJoTpzg?t=673
