FlexNet DC was reporting wrong numbers

Actually It was doing exactly what it was setup to do. The problem is that the installer had connected the negative battery cable to the wrong side of the shunt. The attached photo shows it connected in the WRONG place. From Looking at it I can see how it would be an easy mistake to make. Some of the problems I was seeing was the mate saying charging at night, SOC numbers never going below 98%, power numbers not making any sense at all. I was pretty confused for a while because my SG readings and voltage just didn't jive with the mate display readings.

A Installer that could make that mistake might ought to reconsider his / her vocation. Shunts are pretty much elementary 101.
