Help understanding my new setup, please!

Hey gang. Thanks in advance for any attention this gets.

We recently had a new solar setup installed that breaks down as follows:

• 1 x KH10 hybrid inverter + 1 x 6 EP6 battery on main house.

• 1 x F6000 Solar only inverter in garage approx 35 metres away from main house.

• 25 x Trina 450W panels (12 on the main house with the hybrid inverter and battery, and the remaining 13 on the garage and static caravan with the solar only inverter).

First thing's first, I would love more than anything for both inverters to register total production on the main screen of the FOX Cloud app and NOT have to look at two separate devices and manually add it all up, but I'm told conflicting things via installer's engineers and project managers. We even had an engineer out and he ran a data cable through our conduit from the house to the garage because the project manager said that's all that needed to be done, but then the engineer said "Oh. The inverters won't do that. You can't connect them that way. Sorry."

So, to the community; is this possible???

Second, I'm having trouble understanding the flow of everything. Please see screenshots attached here. Essentially, it appears to me that both inverters are producing plenty, but the battery is still discharging back to the grid and I do not know how to explain this.

Again, any insight into better understanding this is very helpful and I am eternally grateful.
