Battery Configuration
The Alliance Intelligent Battery Series™ can be configured to operate as a single module
or with multiple modules in parallel if additional power or energy required. (Series
configuration of the Alliance Intelligent Battery Series™ is not supported and will result
in permanent damage to the BMS if configured as such).
a.
Single Module Setup
The battery pack can work in a standalone fashion with little or no modification to the
wiring. The Power cables to the Positive and Negative terminals need to be
connected and then the system state needs to be commanded to Drive or Charge,
as described above.
b.
Multi-Module Setup
For proper operation in a multi-module setup, the Alliance Intelligent Battery
Series™, batteries need to know the state of the other batteries in the system. This
is accomplished through inter-module CAN communication, with the wiring as shown
below. Additionally, the terminals of the batteries must also be connected to each
other for operation. Failure to do this will result in the batteries entering a faulted
condition and the batteries will be in a
Standby Not Ready
condition. The number
of modules that can be connected in parallel is limited to 10.
