Step 2
Step 2
Go to Parameter Settings menu and select the type of cell, number of cells and battery capacity then push Store Parameters button to save data to
SBMS.
Then remove the 12pin connector and reconnect for the new stored parameters to be accepted.
Step 3
Step 3
You can now remove the 12pin connector and start working on the 8 + 2 pin side connector.
A CAT5 or CAT6 type cable is ideal there as you have 4 pairs of twisted wires and can use one for Battery current shunt (ADC1n/ADC1p) then
second one for PV current shunt (Pvn/Pvp) the third one for EXT IO3 (/EXTIO3-) and last one for EXT IO4 (/EXTIO4-).
See diagram on page 3 for details and you can even respect the color scheme that I used :) as usually the CAT cables have those colors
Brown,Orange,Blue and Green.
The XT1+/XT1- is optional but if you want you can connect a battery temperature sensor that will be a 10KOhm Thermistor search for “10KOhm
3950 NTC” and you can find many options and also use a twisted wire pair for this.
All you need to do is strip 4 to 5 mm from the end of the wire and insert in the connector until the stop is reached. To remove the wires
or insert stranded wire insert a needle in the corresponding rectangular hole above the wire as seen in the third drawing below.
secure the cable to the SBMS0 or to the front panel the SBMS0 is mounted on.
*Screenshots for 4s the diagram on the bottom will
change to reflect the correct connection for different
configurations you select but see the anterior page for
details on all available configurations from 3s to 8s.
Any number of parallel cells are no different from a
single higher capacity cell as all parallel cells will
have the exact same voltage.
