This document describes settings and states of the BMS Mini device. Configuration is carried out via the USB bus using the ElectricDeviceMonitor v1.17.3 or later (available by the link).
The USB-miniUSB cable (connector X2) is used to connect the BMS Mini device to a PC. After connecting, the device is identified as a device with a serial interface (COM port) as in the figure below:
To connect to the device, launch ElectricDeviceMonitor, select "Unified monitor" in the main program window, specify the name of the device's COM port, and click the "Launch monitor" button:
When connected, the device asks for an access password. For the "User" account, the default password is "user" (without quotes).
After successful authentication, the device will send settings and state profiles, which will be displayed as two tabs: "Settings" and "State":
The monitor window is divided into three areas. The upper area displays controls for starting and stopping communication with the device, information about the device (its name, hardware and firmware versions, time on the device clock), and controls for performing actions with the device (change password, restart, reset, etc.).
The central area displays the parameters and state variables of the device. The tabs in this area are divided into three columns. The first column displays parameter groups in a tree form, the second column displays records for the selected group, and the third displays the detailed description of the record.
The lower area shows the history of device activity.
