5. Opstelling en installering

Proper installation is critical for the safe and effective operation of your DALY Smart BMS. Please follow these steps carefully.

5.1 Bedradingsinstruksies

1. Before connecting the BMS, ensure all balance wires are correctly welded to your battery pack.
2. Meet die voltage between adjacent balance cables. This should approximate the nominal voltage of a single battery string to confirm correct wiring.
3. Connect the balance wires to the BMS balance port. Ensure the black wire (B-) is connected first, followed by the red balance wires in ascending order.
4. Connect the main negative terminal of the battery pack (B-) to the B- terminal on the BMS.
5. Connect the main positive terminal of the battery pack (B+) to the P+ terminal on the BMS.
6. Connect your load/charger to the P- terminal on the BMS and the B+ terminal of the battery pack.
7. Plug in the NTC temperature sensor and the Bluetooth module into their respective ports on the BMS.
