51.1	839	The BMS Main 3 / BMS Main 2R allows to control the difference between sum of all cell voltages and voltage measured before the contactors.

	847	* Enable – a flag to enable the protection;
	848	* Abnormal voltage difference – a maximum difference between sum of all cell voltages and voltage measured before the contactors (High voltage 1), V;
	849	* Delay before setting the error, second;
	850	* Delay before clearing the error, second;
	851	* Lock – a flag to block the error until the device is restarted.
	852
	853	If there is a mismatch between voltages, "Battery voltage mismatch" error is generated.
	854
	855	Error generation conditions:
	856
	857	* difference between sum of all cell voltages and voltage measured before the contactors is more than "Abnormal voltage difference" value during "Delay before setting the error" time.
	858
	859	Conditions for removing the error:
	860
	861	* difference between sum of all cell voltages and voltage measured before the contactors is less than "Abnormal voltage difference" value during "Delay before clearing the error" time.

2.1	868	=== Critical error ===
	869
26.1	870	Some of the errors are system critical. A separate signal named "Critical error" indicates a BMS fault.

	877
	878	* Enable – a flag to enable the protection;

2.1	882	* Lock – a flag to block the error until the device is restarted.
	883
27.3	884	The "Critical error" signal is generated if at least one of the critical errors (see [[Errors>>doc:Battery management systems.Additional information.1\. Battery controllers\: signals and errors.WebHome\|\|anchor="HErrors"]]) is generated during the “Delay before setting the error” time.
2.1	885
25.1	886	The “Critical error" signal is cleared if there are no errors from the list above during the “Delay before clearing the error” time.

15.1	900	* Errors 1, 2 to set the "Critical error" – bitfields to enable check of corresponding errors.
2.1	901
28.1	902	The “General error”is generated if at least one of the enabled errors is generated during the “Delay before setting the error” time.
2.1	903
	904	The “General error” is cleared if there are no errors from the enabled errors during the “Delay before clearing the error” time.
