    Introduction 2.1. Product description The Battery Interface Box (BIB) is a device capable to connect and disconnect a battery or a battery bank to a load / charger (DC bus) with the intent to protect the Li-ion battery or battery bank against improper use. The BIB communicates with the battery’s BMS (Battery management system) to request to the batteries if they are operable and used within their limits.
  • Page 6: Used Symbols

    The BIB ensures the following functions: • Collecting the status and alarm messages of all the Li-ion batteries connected. In case of an alarm in one of the batteries, the BIB will disconnect the battery (bank) by opening the main relay. •...
  • Page 7: Bib Functional Behaviour

    3.2.2.1 ON state The BIB is in or can be set to the ON state when there are no active errors. In this state the main relay is enabled, the battery bank is connected to the DC bus. The BIB can be set to ON state using the battery monitor, or automatically when the auto-on feature is enabled.
  • Page 8 3.2.2.2 OFF state The BIB can be set in OFF state by the battery monitor software. In this state the main relay is disabled, the battery bank is disconnected from the DC bus. 3.2.2.3 Pre-charge state A battery bank system with a large capacitive load can be exposed to high electric current during initial turn-on.

    0.1Ah before it will go to shutdown state again. When the battery bank is charged with 1Ah the BIB will switch to the ON state. The BIB will also go to the shutdown state after 10 minutes spend in the undervoltage reboot state, this implies that the battery bank should be charged with at least 1Ah to avoid unnecessary shutdown 3.3.

    Caution! To ensure IP54, make sure the J2 connection remains covered by the cover when it is not used. The Li-ion batteries should be connected to the BIB via the CAN interface. Start creating the CAN bus connection as shown in figure 7.
  • Page 19: Can Bus Network Topology

    The BIB must be connected to the male to male cable to the first splitter and from there the rest of the battery bank can be connected. For further information about the CAN network, read the manual of the batteries that will be connected to the BIB.
  • Page 20: Disconnecting The Bib

    Warning! Follow the safety guidelines and measures of chapter 1. If a preconfigured system has been ordered at Super B, the steps in chapter 5.2 are not necessary. If this is not the case, configuring can be done as described in chapter 5.2.

    Any node ID between 2 and 127 can be assigned to a Li-ion battery. Node ID 1 cannot be used for a Li-ion battery as it is the node ID of the BIB. It is not recommended to use node ID 10 for multi battery configurations as it may be confusing in case a new Li-ion battery is added to the system.
  • Page 22 USB-TO-CAN Figure 9. Setup for configuration using the CAN USB converter 2. Perform a ‘Full Scan’ in the update menu (Figure 10). After the full scan one battery and the BIB (CAN master) should be visible in the left-hand panel.

  • Page 24: Battery Layout

    The number of batteries that are connected is detected by the BIB itself by doing a full scan. If the BIB is not configured by SuperB the end user must do this. Follow the procedure below to set the battery layout.
  • Page 25: Input Level Configuration

    BIB will go to ON state (see 3.2.2.1) automatically when the BIB starts up or after a reset. The BIB will go to error state (see 3.2.2.4) if an error occurs. When the error is cleared the BIB will automatically go to ON state if the ‘Auto On’ function is enabled.
  • Page 26: Power Up The Bib

    The BIB is powered up by pressing the ON/OFF button. If the auto on function is enabled and there are no active errors the BIB will go to ON state. If the auto on feature is disabled, it can be turned on manually (see chapter 5.4).
  • Page 27: Status And Control Of The Bib

    The state of the BIB can be manually controlled by using the buttons underneath the indication bars. The reset button can be used to reset the BIB when the BIB and or a Li-ion battery is in error state. More information about the different state and the corresponding behaviour can be found in chapter 3.2.
