Bill,
I would just move the two solar negatives to the shunt B and attach the
trimetric across shunt b. Shunt a and c are the two solar controllers and
that info is already sent to the Mate 3 from the controllers via the HUB.
I only use the FlexnetDC when I am trying to record other non outback
devices such as an Iota charger or wind input and install another TriMetric
to parse out that info for the customer in big red numbers. The customer
will see net on the TriMetric and you can see the solar detail on the Mate
3.
