254 254  The BMS Main 3X can control the charging/discharging contactor that is used to both charge and discharge the battery.
255 255  
256 -The charge/discharge contactor (“Charging/Discharging” signal) receives a “Charging” signal (generated by the charge controller) if a “Charge request” signal is received from the upper-level system. In all other cases, the "Discharging" signal is output to the contactor (generated by the discharge controller).
269 +Charge/Discharge contactor has two algorithms of operation:
257 257  
271 +* Dependent - Charge/Discharge contactor depends on Charge and Discharge algorithms and their signals and behaves as Charging contactor if "Charging" signal is set, otherwise – as Discharging contactor;
272 +* Independent - Charge/Discharge contactor is based on its own controller.
273 +
274 +The charging/discharging controller supports the following modes:
275 +
276 +1. Charging/Discharging is always allowed (Always on) – the device ignores voltage and current unbalance of the battery modules and commands to close the discharging contactors of the battery modules and the main discharging contactor.
277 +1. Charging/Discharging is allowed if all battery modules are balanced (Balanced).
278 +1. Charging/Discharging is allowed for most balanced battery modules (Partially balanced). Unbalanced modules are disconnected from the common bus and do not participate in the discharging.
279 +
280 +The device controls two processes: **joining battery modules** and **closing the main charging/discharging contactor**.
281 +
282 +The operation of the **joining battery modules** depends on the signal received:
283 +
284 +* If "Join to charge" is received, joining procedure is done as described in [[Charge>>doc:||anchor="HCharge"]] section;
285 +* If "Join to discharge" is received, joining procedure is done as described in [[Discharge>>doc:||anchor="HDischarge"]] section;
286 +* If both signals received, "Join to charge" has a priority.
287 +
288 +The operation of **closing main charging/discharging contactor **depends on the signal received:
289 +
290 +* If "Charge request" is received, procedure is done as described in [[Charge>>doc:||anchor="HCharge"]] section;
291 +* If "Discharge request" is received, procedure is done as described in [[Discharge>>doc:||anchor="HDischarge"]] section;
292 +* If both signals received, "Charge request" has a priority.
293 +
294 +
295 +In addition, the charge/discharge controller calculates and transmits to the upper-level system the maximum allowable current value with which the modular battery can be charged ("Charge current limit") and discharged ("Discharge current limit"), as well as the maximum regeneration current value with which the modular battery can be charged during operation under load ("Regeneration current limit"). The calculation of the charge, discharge and regeneration currents of the entire battery is performed based on the number of battery modules operating for charge or discharge and the maximum charge and discharge current values ​​transmitted by them:
296 +
297 +* "Charge current limit" and "Regeneration current limit" are calculated only if there is "Charge request";
298 +* "Discharge current limit" is calculated only if there is "Discharge request".
