@tom one parameter is missing in suggestion UBDI 0.025 UBDI, factory set at 0.008, accept a slightly bigger unbalance, which will result in a quicker switch to float. Remember if cells are not i...

Any comments on my settings?   Tom

@tom is correct. It is factory setting, if you didn't change it before , it is set ok.

i see now where to check it.  under firmware and the SOCH?    it returns   5 e minus 2 which i think is .05 or 5 percent.   is that right? tom

@Ben  for some reason i cant cut and paste. Balancing end  3.5 Balancing start  3.4 Max allowed delta   .5 end of charge  3.55 end of charge hysteresis  .25...

@tom can you post your actual settings also. This tell straight away or the suggested settings will help you.

@tom     Try these settings:       Settings: Balancing end 3,55 Balancing start 3,45 max allow delta 0,25 end off charge 3,52 end off charge hysteresis 0,19...

@tom 0.5 is typical but you might want to experiment with setting it to zero.  Here is the logic overview for 2.9.4.  2.9.5 may have a few tweaks. Rick Maximum Cell Float Voltage Coeffi...

We just found a potential issue, so it could me a couple of weeks before we can release 2.9.5

can you tell me what the Charge Float Voltage Coefficient should be set at?  it is a 0 to1 setting.  i currently have it at .5, but i am still not going into float mode ever.  

@Ryan Hello,I haven't checked yet because the yacht is on land.I'll write when the yacht is in the water.Best regards,Krzysztof Bosak

Thank you for the fast reply Rick! I'm fed up with Wakespeed and going to purchase an ARCO Zeus to replace my WS-500 PRO. I also have a bricked WS-500 I will be doing a review on shortly. The WS-5...

We now have 2.9.5 in house and will be doing some final testing and if all goes well we will release it in 1-2 weeks

Ryan, Do you have your Active BMS setup on the VE.CAN port and the port configured in the Cerbo? In the past year Victron and REC have enhanced their interoperability and for DVCC control it now ...

Did you manage to get the Zeus and REC Active BMS syncronized? 

@Rick I went through the steps just as you described them.  Well, I cheated just a little on step 4.  I didn't immediately walk away.  I left the cover off the Wifi module so that it...

tine sent me the latest firmware, but i am hesitant to use it after your comments the others experience.   tom

I will check to see with REC to see what the status on the latest release is.

yes

Are you using DVCC control so that it's rhe BMS that's controlling the charger?

i am still not able to get it into float mode.  it stays in absorbsion   can someone help me please figure out what setting to use?  i have gotten some help from tine, but it di...

Hey Richard, Great update to the info I had thrown together showing to how to bootload the fw, thanks very much! Lets try one last thing.  I will send you a copy of the 2.9.5 beta firmware v...

@Rick I did try all three RS485 bitrates for the Wifi module.  The re-flashed ABMS never responded.  Since I couldn't unlock it, I couldn't load a program to it and issue commands, such a...

What is the BMS Serial and SW version? Send me setting please. 

If you contact Al at Wakespeed you may be able to get a copy sent. al@wakespeed.com (Please note this is second hand info from another user)

@Rick Thanks for this info. I thought that I had mis-configured something. Is the workaround to use the WS-500 with DVCC turned off until 2.6.1 is released?

I have not seen this situation before. @Tine Andrejasic Tine, what do you think of this problem?

Richard, the new firmware may be set to work with 115k RS485 baud rate.  Did you try setting the rates on the Firmware page to 115k? REC has added a new RSBR instruction for this. RSBR 1&nbs...

I understand there may be a bug in WS 2.6 with DVCC control but that Al from Wakespeed has a 2.6.1 update coming for it.

@Rick-admin Upgrading the Cerbo from 3.00 to 3.54 seems to have been the key.  The ABMS now communicates with the Victron over the VE.CAN port.   Thanks for your help.  Everyth...

@Rick I've been trying to find the quick start manual you mentioned previously.  Sorry for all the hand holding. 

@Rick the strange thing is I have not touched the settings for probably 3 weeks prior to it happening.  By restart I mean the battery came online and powered up the system. Error is still the...

You will need to upgrade your cerbo fw and select the proper protocol and speed for the VE.CAN port as well as setting the BMS baud rate to 250k.  The info is in the quickstart manual

The bootstrapped ABMS never established comms with my Wifi unit - so I couldnt proceed further resurrecting that unit.  I recieved and installed the replacement unit and wiring harness, which ...

I received the spare parts an installed the new wire loom with no effect.  The new BMS worked immediately and communicated with the WiFi unit at the default 56k.  The Canbus only function...

Glad it powered up again. If you set a value out of range, like setting SOCS to 75 instead of 0.75  you will get this error, but a power reset will set it back to default value.  You sa...

System has been in service for nearly 5 years with no issues. Cells are 280ah eve configured in a 2p-16s A few days ago the system just shut off completely. The only error on the victron system wa...

@Ben I bought a UEBSP programmer off of Trademe here in NZ.  I wish I had bought a two-pack for a few more dollars.  Why?  Because you need a second programmer to update firmware on ...

Tine, I've verified that only the Firmware page is functional.  All other pages on the Wifi interface simply say: "BMS not connected".   I tried all 3 RS-485 link speeds on the Wifi ...

@Jonny I've been away from my boat for a few months, but am about to get into settling in my Wakespeed 500-Victron-REC-BMS configurations and set up.  I will collect as much data that I can a...
