They fixed one more thing on V1.25. When Alternator current is below 1A, it now sends data to the Cerbo as 0A. Before it would show +10W all day, every day, messing up the consumption calculation...

Zeus as REC Active follower on 500k bms can but no cerbo widget.posted in Installation and Configuration
In sync mode "disabled" it does read the voltage correct. But alternator volt is always 0V, even thought the volt sense is connected. Even unboxed an second Zeus to rule out HW failure.
