I am having difficulty getting a comm signal from my Magnum BMK installed on the same shunt as the WZBGJr. Is it even possible to mount them together? I have replaced the comm cable to the magnum inverter (PAE4448) but no dice. I'd like to have my meter information available at the magnum remote instead of just at the classic CC. Any thoughts? Would mounting the BMK directly underneath the WZBGJr work? Currently I have it mounted to the bottom side of the WZGJr with the same mounting screws. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Hello JT....

Yes, you can mount both WB Jr. and BMK to the same shunt.  It seems to work fine.


Check the picture in this manual for the 3rd party connection...

I'm sure you have already tried another cable ?  The RC doesn't see the BMK ?

Also, Have you asked Magnum ?

Thanks Bob. The RC does not see the BMK. I have not yet spoken with Magnum. I have tried a new COMM cable but no dice. I have both the AGS and BMK but the AGS is not yet connected to anything while I debug the BMK.  I believe everything is wired properly accoring to the diagram. Thanks for the reply and diagram. I'm off to speak with Magnum.  Thanks again.
