With this configuration the Alarm dry contacts are connected together in order to have a
common signal. Two options are available depending on the jumper configuration, as
indicated in the table G (ref. fig.9 and fig.11)

3.6 Battery activation
1) Set the DC power supply at a voltage between 53Vdc and 59Vdc. No current limitation is
needed, however, with the factory setting, a minimum current supply of 32 Amps per module from
the rectifier is necessary to ensure the shortest charging time.
2) Turn on the DC power supply
3) Turn the battery switch (Fig.7) to
the ON position. The display should indicate “INIT” and the
green led (1, Fig.12) on the front panel should start blinking, indicating that the BMS is powered
and the battery is not yet connected to the DC Bus (the internal power switch is still open).
Figure 12
4) If the battery internal temperature is below 265°C (518°F) the warm up phase is started, (see
section 4.1 of this manual) till the target temperature is achieved. At this point the power switch is
closed, connecting the battery to the DC power supply. The green and blue led (1-3, Fig.12) on the
front panel stops blinking and remains solid.
5) Now the battery is electrochemically operative, and if it is not in the full state of charge, the built-
in battery charger turns on and the charging phase starts. (See section 4.2 of this manual).
6) A discharge is always possible, even if the battery is in charge mode (see section 4.2 of this
manual)
When an SMC battery is turned off, it’s always necessary to connect it to a powered
DC bus to turn it on again, for any battery SOC and internal temperature condition.
