Connection to the BMS
The connection from the BMS to the OCI417.10 is via terminal block. The physical medium is
RS-485. Multiple RS-485 nodes may be connected in a daisy-chain. For long runs (typically
greater than 1,000 feet) or noisy environments, termination may be required on the end node.
Terminal designations:

The status LED annunciates the status of the OCI417.10 and the connection to the LME7...
Green / Red Alternating
Tx/Rx LED
The LED will flash red to indicate incoming communication on the RS-485 connection. The LED
will flash green to indicate outgoing communication. With normal communication, the LED will
rapidly alternate between green and red. NOTE: If the poll rate is fast the flashes may be very
brief and hard to notice.
