362 +=== Critical error ===
363 +
364 +Some of the errors are system critical. A separate signal named "Critical error" indicates a BMS fault.
365 +
366 +To change the critical error parameters, select the "Protections → Critical error" section:

369 +[[image:1749657441588-644.png||data-xwiki-image-style-alignment="center" data-xwiki-image-style-border="true" height="116" width="800"]]
370 +
371 +In this section:
372 +
373 +* Enable – a flag to enable the protection;
374 +* Module errors 1, 2 to set the critical error – bitfields with module errors that generate critical error when appear on any module;
375 +* Delay before setting the error;
376 +* Delay before clearing the error;
377 +* Lock – a flag to block the error until the device is restarted.
378 +
379 +The "Critical error" signal is generated if at least one of the critical errors (see [[Errors>>doc:Battery management systems.Additional information.2\. Strings controllers\: signals and errors.WebHome||anchor="HErrors"]]) is generated during the “Delay before setting the error” time.
380 +
381 +The “Critical error" signal is cleared if there are no errors from the list above during the “Delay before clearing the error” time.
