Using Zombie with Leaf Inverter

I'm running a Gen 2 Leaf motor and inverter setup, controlled by a Zombie. Does the Leaf inverter already measure current internally, or do I still need to add an IVT-S shunt?

From firmware 2.20 you no longer need the IVT-S shunt.

Not correct.

It does not measure current, it only measures voltage, you do not need the IVT-s to do precharge. So you can run the leaf stack without an IVT-s but you would not be able to measure the current draw only the inverter input voltage.

Maybe Greg was referring to Leaf BMS support?

Thanks for putting me straight, I'm still getting my head round the ZV.

I was confusing the Leaf BMS support with the inverter functionality.
