1. Reset: When the BMS is in the dormant state, press the button for 1S to activate the BMS.
Meanwhile, the LED indicator will be lit to show SOC of the battery. When the BMS is in the active
state, press the button for 3S to cause battery go into sleep mode. Then the “RUN” LED indicator
light for 0.5 seconds.
2. ADD: DIP switch, used for setting the product communication address when communication
cascade;
3. SOC: These 4 LEDs are used to display the pack SOC. The lighting of these LEDs indicates the
SOC of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. For example, when SOC >75%, all 4 LEDS will light up. If
SOC> 50% and <75%, 3 LEDs will light up. Etc.
4. ALM: Warning light.
5. RUN: Indicates the alarm or the run status of the battery.
6. RS485: Communication interface: Used for RS485 communication.
7. RS232: Connect with upper computer for battery system debugging and software upgrade.
8. Handle: Used to carry/move the battery.
9. Used for mounting within cabinet or relay rack.
10. Positive output terminal.
11. Negative output terminal.

Figure 4-1: Battery Module Installation (Example)
§ We recommend installing battery modules in the lower shelves first and
proceeding to the top.
§ The battery can be mounted in a standard 19 inch cabinet or rack.
§ Battery modules can be inserted into a rack frame according to the
customer’s battery configuration scheme.
Battery Installation
Make sure racks are properly anchored.

5. Cable Connecon
5.1 Single Baery Connecon
§ Before connecting the cables to the rectifier, confirm the output switch
of the rectifier has been turned of
f to prevent the risk of arcing, fire,
electric shock or burns.
§ Before connection, make sure to close the battery.
§ Please follow the instructions to protect the BMS module against damage.
§ DO NOT deviate from the sequence of steps below.
§ Exercise extreme caution to prevent shorting terminals.
§
Terminals and their connected wires have either positive or negative
polarity (Positive + Negative -). The polarity of a terminal or a wire
connected to the terminal is on the front of each module. Exercise
extreme caution to prevent the terminals and/or wires of opposite
polarity from contacting each other.
§ In a grounded battery system, it is necessary to avoid any non-insulated
contact between the negative and positive terminal of the battery or the
rack during the connection process. This will avoid short circuits and

§ When tightening the screws, make sure they are at a straight angle from
the battery module terminals to avoid damage to the nuts inside.
§ Assemble the screws using a Phillips-head within the fastening torque of
less than 8.0 Nm (79.88 kgf/cm).
§ The power terminals, such as “+,” “-,” of the module are covered with a
protective cover to guard against a short circuit (Shown in Figure 5-1).
§ You must remove the protective cover prior to connecting and reattach
the protective cover after connecting.
