DIP switch description:
When the batteries are connected in parallel, the host communicates with the slaves through the CAN interface. The host summarizes the information of the entire battery system and communicates with the inverter through CAN or 485. The connection mode is divided into the
following two cases:

1. If the master is the latest BX51100 battery with DIP switch:

2. The communication cable from the master CAN IN to the inverter comm port should be the correct one.

3. When the battery works with GOODWE、Solis、LUX、Sofar、DEYE、VICTRON、 IMEON、Infinisolar、Sungrow、SMA、RENAC、DELIOS、SAJ(CAN Comm) ,before starting the battery,you need put the master DIP switch “# 3” to the “ON” position (to the top), then turn on the batteries.
   Master Setting 1

4. If the battery communicates with the Axpert-king,Axpert-VMIII,Growatt SPH/SPA(CAN comm)、GMDE、Saj(485 comm), turn the master DIP switch “#2” to “ON” position.
   Master Setting 2

5.  If the battery communicates with the Growatt SPF HVM-P/ES/WPV by RS485 communication, turn the master DIP switch “#2” and “#3” to “ON”.
   Master Setting 3

6. If the battery communicates with the Schneider Conext Series, turn the master DIP switch “#1” and “#3” to “ON”.
   Master Setting 4

7. When you setup the master DIP as setting 1~4,all the slaves keep the DIP 0000,no need change.

8. If the energy storage system has only one BX51100, it is the master itself, and still follow the above steps.

Battery Management System(BMS)

Low Voltage Protection in Discharging ：
When any battery cell voltage or total voltage is lower than the rated protection value during discharging, the over-discharging protection is activated, and the battery buzzer makes an alarm sound. Then battery system stops supplying power to the outside. When the voltage of each cell back to rated return range, the protection is over.
Over Voltage Protection in Charging：
Battery will stops charging when total voltage or any battery cell voltage reaches the rated protection value during charging stage. When total voltage or all cell back to rated range, the protection is over.

Current Protection

Over Current Protection in Charging：

When the charge current ＞ 90A, current limit protection mode is activated, current will be limited to 3A，protection is removed after rated time delaying 10S. Circulate like this until the current is lower than 90A.
Over Current Protection in Discharging：
When the discharge current is higher than 100A, the battery buzzer alarms and the system stops discharging after 15s. After protection, the discharging will restore in 60s delay or immediately when there is charging current.

Caution:
The buzzer sound alarm setting can be manually turned off on the background software, and the factory default is on.

Temperature Protection

Low/Over temperature protection in charging：
When battery’s temperature is beyond range of -5 ℃ ~+55 ℃ during charging, temperature protection is activated, device stops charging.
The protection is over when temperature back to rated working range.

Low/Over temperature protection in discharging：
When battery’s temperature is beyond range of -20℃~+55℃ during discharging, temperature protection is activated, device stops supplying power to the outside.
The protection is over when temperature back to rated working range.

Other Protection

Short Circuit Protection：
When the battery is activated from the shutdown state, if a short circuit occurs, the system starts short-circuit protection for 60 seconds.
Self-Shutdown：
When device connects no external loads and power supply and no external communication for over 72 hours, device will dormant standby automatically.
Caution
Battery’s maximum discharging current should be more than load’s maximum working current
