3.5.3.2 Multi-groups system turns on
Warning: Double check all the power cables and communication cables. Make sure the voltage of the inverter/PCS is same level with the battery system before connection. Check all the power switch are OFF. System turns on step: 1 Check all cables are connected correctly. Especially the Link 1 / Link 0 between master and slave strings. Check grounding is connected.
2 If necessary, turn on the switch at inverter`s battery side or between inverter and battery. If possible, turn on AC or PV power source to wake up inverter.
3 Open protect cover of Power switch. And turn on power switch of all the strings.
4) From the last string, press start button for at least 5 seconds or until buzzer rings for start-up. Then further turn on each string one by one follow below table, the start-up interval between each strings shall less than 30sec.:

Communication Structure Master string Slave string 1 Slave string 2 Slave string 3 Slave string 4 Slave string 5

Start-up Sequence Last Start-up 5th Start-up 4th Start-up (if has) 3rd Start- up (if has) 2nd Start-up (if has) 1st Start-up (if has)

5. Battery system takes 30sec for self-checking, after all strings start-up.

If inverter is turned on by AC or PV source, then most inverter can setup communication with BMS automatically, in this case, the BMS will close relay and system is ready for work.

If inverter needs battery power to turn on, then check the LED of battery shall be:

Status: Orange, solid

SOC: blue, solid

In this case, press the Start button for at least 10s, till the Status lighting Blue and fast flashing, then battery will black start to support inverter and after inverter turned on and set up communication, then BMS is ready for work.
