Commissioning 7.1 Status indicators Battery pack There are four LED indicators on the front of the battery packs to show its operating status. ON: This indicator stays on while the battery pack is supplied with power for opera- tion. Charging: This stays on while the battery pack is charging. Discharging: This stays on while the battery pack is discharging. -
Page 43: Commissioning Battery Pack
If two battery packs are installed, both must be turned on at an interval of less than 30 seconds. 2. Make sure that the ON indicator is lit. If it stays off, do not use the battery pack. Contact LG Chem or your distributor. 3. Turn on the inverter. NOTE If communication with the inverter is not established within 10 minutes after the battery pack is turned on, the circuit breaker automatically trips. -
Page 44: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Check the indicators on the front to determine the state of the battery pack. A warning state is triggered when a condition, such as with voltage or temperature, is beyond design limitations. The battery pack’s BMS periodically reports its operating state to the inverter. -
Page 45: Firmware Update
Firmware Update It is possible to update the BMS firmware. Use a memory card to update it. A new firmware may be available from LG Chem website or your distributor. Prepare a memory card with these properties: • The capacity of the memory card must not be greater than 32 GB. - Page 46 Firmware Update 5. Press and hold the update button beside the memory card slot for more than 3 seconds. 6. The LED indicators flash in cycles until the firmware update is complete.
