The Advanced Series BMS includes an integrated SOC Gauge, designed to track battery state of charge (percent of usable
energy left in the battery) as well as other useful data parameters. Tracking state of charge is accomplished by a Coulomb
counter, based on an internal, high sensitivity hall-effect sensor. The SOC Gauge data will only be correct if the configuration
parameters are set correctly, which are pre-set initially by Lithionics Battery, but are user adjustable with supporting
hardware. The SOC Gauge will also track and display live amperage (A), live wattage (W), battery voltage (V), temperature
(F/C), amp hours (Ah), watt hours (Wh), time remaining (d/h), etc. The meter will be most accurate if the battery is fully
charged on a regular basis. If the battery is always partially charged, then the SOC meter reading may drift in the long term
and will become less accurate. When the most accurate measurements are required it is recommended to perform a full
charge at least weekly.
