START UP PROCEDURE
The Power Switch and Run Button are located to the right of the battery terminal connections on the side of the battery
chassis. The Power Switch is a mechanical switch that switches the battery ON or OFF. The Run Button is an LED button that
is only enabled when the Power Switch is in the ON (1) position. The Run Button provides several status indications that are
described in the table below.

A 2-second press on the Run Button will turn the Battery Module on.
During the startup procedure, the Run button will blink until the safety inspection has been completed by the BMS.
In case of cluster, after the master is turned on will automatically start up all the slave modules in sequence.
SHUTDOWN
