Yeah, it would probably work fine for that. But you can't tell which battery you are looking at since they are all combined into one amplifier.
I will get to individual monitoring in a minute.
750 uO is kind of high for the typical home or industrial power battery system but will work of course.
I use that because I plan to use 100A/75mv shunts. The circuit should work with with any 4 equal shunts. The divider R14/R15 would be select-able for 50mv vs 75mv shunts.

What that means is for PV, the positive side should connect to the PV positive and its negative to the controller plus input.
For batteries, the positive would be the battery plus end and negative breaker end would go to the charge controller plus output. But usually, non-polarized breakers are used on the battery side and also as a disconnect on the controller positive PV input side.
All of our PV breakers are supposed to be non-polarized now. I am not sure what the status is for those ? I will have to ask about that. We have never seen an issue with polarized breakers on the PV side. I could be mistaken but even connected the wrong way, the current is limited and fairly small compared to what a battery can put out. Battery current, for sure, can be a problem with non-polarized breakers in a short circuit situation.
PV combiner breakers, like fuses, should not be used as a PV disconnect. Besides, the combiners aren't located next to the controller anyway.

I'll check the connections internal of the Rosie. Since I had the epanel come with the inverter, I'm assuming it was wired correctly from the factory. External sensor is set for battery.

I have attached the LTspice file.
