@Rick Thanks for your recomendations, that works. Take a look at my logging is this fairly normal for the differnt resistence, I noticed it can change alot on differnt days      ...

That e is the number of digits to offset the decimal, so the e-1 means your RAZL is 0.25 :) I think you mean you have a 2P16S system with 2 cells first paralleled than those 16 put in series to gi...

Regarding the CELL SETTINGS INSTRUCTIONS if I type RAZL? I get a 2.50000e-1, that means what? Regarding the Parallel strings box on the settings, I have a 16S2P Bank (32 batteries), Should that b...

@Rick Thanks

@Ben is this PDF available? I do not see an enclosures in this thread. Is this because the forum was moved to a new platform? I am working through this thread to understand what is happening, but i...

It looks like you have a pretty big cell imbalance problem.  I see that your balancing ends at 3.58 but you stop charging at 3.53, which is part of the issue. If it were me I would adjust my ...

I'm using my REC Q BMS with 560 Ah at 48 volts, 32 LiFePO4 battery's total. 100 amp Inverters. 2, 100 amp charge controllers, I've been getting this Cell Voltage differs more than set error. If any...

Thanks for sharing Jonny and a shoutout to Trond @Trond Røsvik  The only time that should happen is if your USB is connected, as the WS500 thinks the ignition is turned on, which start...

On the more recent version of the precharge module there is a board mounted fuse that might be the problem.  It will be black or grey and about  1.2cm (1/2")square and may have a glob of ...

After replacing my alternator (see recent posts) and updating my firmware to the latest 2 contactor version, my system was working fine. However, My system stopped charging via the alternator and s...

Problem solved!.Have now solved most of the problems with regulation with good help from my supplier Trond at Farco. Pulsating regulation occurred due to NMEA conflicts, which I suspected in the fi...

@Sturla I was able to reload the previous firmware update throught the cable and software. Tine got back to me and said I should have been able to re-install with the wifi module, but I could never...

FYI -- the CHRG setting (CAN protocol) gets reset on firmware update and that was the reason I lost communication.

Just did the same mistake...  @W did you get any instructions on how to fix? I have cable and the pc program.

Long time ago this posting is done. I don't have an answer. But more a related question. I would like to install a bi-stable relais.  I was think about:  https://www.whisperpower.com/rem...

Thanks!

Your settings should be retained and if the new FW version has new parameters they will be set to the standard default value. After an update the BMS will power cycle so make sure you have the wi-...

Does anyone know what happens to the REC BMS settings when the firmware is updated?  And more broadly what happens if the firmware doesn't install properly? Does the firmware carry over settin...

Hey Jonas, There is currently no bulk delete option and your solution was a great idea. I am including REC engineering in this reply so hopefully they can add it to the feature enhancement wish l...

Since there were more than 200 log files I gave up trying to delete them using the WiFi web interface. After I had shut down both the BMS and the WiFi module I removed the MicroSD card from the WiF...

Hi I just updated the firmware to version 2.92 (bms_1A_Victron_v2_92_1_tasks.bin). The update seems to have worked fine and I can see that the new firmware is loaded by the ABMS. The update was do...

Still having the same problem with pulsed charging. Now testing with REC fw 2_53 (volt regulation) and WS fw 2.5.3. Have deactivated RPM and now use RPM from nmea, as well as changed the feature i...

30 days of data. Does anyone have an idea why my CCL and CVL values are moving around when charging my batteries?

I have now tested charging over time and I definitely have something unstable in the system. Not sure what the cause is, but sometimes when I start the engine it regulates according to DVCC, other ...

Asking about REC ABMS.

Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to start a new thread. Can anyone advise me of the format of the rs485 message that responds to "LCD1"? I know it is 7 float values as defined in the manual. ...

I just purchased a BSLRD. I can't get it to work with my relay.   I've hooked it up to a power supply but there are no lights to indicate that it is powering up. How can I test it using ...

Hello, it now worked normally. It was the wrong firmware on the slaves. I flashed it with slave firmware 2.3 and now it works. If the master cannot find a slave, it will not communicate with the ...

I use Adaptive Idle Pullback and dont have this issue. PBF value 8 and Engine Idle 1200 RPM.   My bet is the "RPM -> half power mode" is causing problems.   

ok, you will need to contact your dealer and request the slave version.  We don't have it posted on our site yet.  If we are your dealer, please just send us an email request to support@o...

I think i have a standalone firmware. The lights continue with flashing with connecting to master Yes adress is different 1 and 2
