System Function Diagram
Please be noted the fuse is not coming with BMS, we suggest customer to have the fuse on the P+ cable, it is the last protection if after failures occurs on all BMS’s over-current-protections. Suggested to go with the fuse which is slightly greater than overcurrent protection current.
Programming Parameters Settings
Almost all parameters can be logically programmed according to your cells’ specs on BesTech Software (Supports Windows System only), please be noted the programming setting function is not open for everyone, the software normally is set as display for parameters only, BesTech Power only gives the access for programming to customers who really understand BMS/Battery well.
With watchdog embedded in BesTech Software, the system is more robust, Battery Pack parameters are real-time displaying on our PC software, the data detection frequency is every 400mS. Any alarm/fault conditions are saved to our EEPROM (Please be noted the special conditions records will be lost if BMS is reset or lost power).
To run BesTech Software, BesTech Programming Tool is needed (need purchase separately), the tool drive can be download from here.
Our programming tool is as below.
BesTech Software PC Utility (Windows only) downloading address is here. Your windows system probably need another firmware to run
smoothly, please download from here.
Here is the screenshot for BesTech Software PC utility.
Pre-configuration Before Use
BesTech BMS is preconfigured with your battery profiles which should be provided before ordering.
The basic battery profiles needed for pre-configuration as below.
• Li-ion / LiFePO4 • Configuration / Voltage
• Battery Cell LVC and HVC • Battery Pack Capacity
• Continuous discharge current • Charge current
• Battery cell temp. ranges • Over Current • Communication protocol and address (baud rate)
Any additional functions needed such as LCD/LED SOC display, buzz alarm, reset switch and so on, please contact us for functions customization, those are easy to implement from our firmware.
Thanks to our high advanced algorithms estimation, once the basic battery profiles are set initially, at least 2 completely cycles running, our BMS automatically starts to learn the parameters, voltage, current and temperature thresholds…, all parameters will be automatically calibrated and assigned. Those parameters can be adjusted according to the user’s needs afterward, but must remain within the Battery cell’s Manufacturer’s official specifications range.
* Once again the software utility normally is set as display for all parameters only, BesTech Power only gives the access for programming to customers who really understands BMS/Battery well.
