Connection procedure
The BMS can connect to batteries with voltage levels dangerous to life and health. When working with high voltage batteries, follow electrical safety rules, use safety glasses, protective clothing, insulated tools and devices.
All operations to connect the device must be carried out with the supply voltage removed.
- Connect the power contactors to header X2.
- Connect one or more current sensors, as well as external temperature sensors (if necessary) to header X5.
- Connect BMS Logic devices to header X9.
- Connect digital inputs and outputs (if necessary) to header X3.
- Connect the high voltage bus (if necessary) to headers X11-X14.
- Connect the high-voltage network integrity circuit (if necessary) to header X4.
- Connect external devices (if necessary) to header X6.
- Connect other devices (BMS Indication, BMS Display, if necessary) to header X7.
- If the BMS Main 3 / BMS Main 3X is the last device on the RS-485-1, CAN1, or CAN2 bus, install jumpers J1-J3.
- Connect an external power supply to header X1. The device will start when there is a 9-32V power supply and one of the KEYRUN or CHARGE_ON signals with a voltage of more than 8.5V is supplied.
