About Warnings and Protections
Your Joule Case battery is equipped with a Battery
Management System (BMS) that continuously monitors
voltage, current, temperature, state-of-charge and state-
of-health of the battery.
Should a condition occur where voltage, current or
temperature begins to approach the design limits of
the battery, the BMS will set a warning ag, the red LED
“warning” indicator on the front panel will ash. The
warning condition will automatically clear when the BMS
detects that the conditions that caused the alarm have
cleared.
If conditions of voltage, current, or temperature exceed
the design limits of the battery, a protection ag will be
set, and the battery will stop discharging or charging,
depending on the nature of the fault. For example, an over-
voltage protection condition will prevent the battery from
charging. Upon discharging to an appropriate level, the
protection condition will clear.
Your Joule Case battery is programmed to generate a
capacity warning when the BMS detects that capacity
has fallen below 10% state-of-charge (SOC). Charging the
battery above 10% SOC will clear this warning condition.
