3.4 Battery Management System 3.4.1 The BMS protects and monitors a battery pack by monitoring sensors and using outputs to control charge and discharge into the battery. The BMS measures inputs from cell voltage taps, the total pack voltage tap, a shunt current sensor, thermistors, and a multi-purpose input. Using the programmed settings, the BMS then controls the flow of current into and out of the battery pack through broadcasting charge and discharge current limits via the CAN bus, analog reference voltages, or simple on/off digital signals depending on which style is appropriate for the...
Page 26
3.4.5 Temperatures - The BMS measures battery temperatures directly from up to 3 thermistors (2 thermistors for revisions A & B) to determine the average temperature of the battery pack. If additional temperature sensing, such as measuring the temperature of each individual cell, is required, the BMS can be connected to a thermistor expansion module which can allow measuring up to 80 thermistors.

3.4.11 Understanding Failure Modes 3.4.12 The Orion Jr. BMS has several failsafe software modes to ensure that the batteries are protected against internal and some external failures of the BMS. These modes are designed to place the priority on protecting the battery. 3.4.13 1.
Page 30
3.4.15 Charge and discharge current limits switch to a voltage failsafe calculation mode and may be higher or lower than they should be. However, they will rapidly adjust if voltages approach minimum or maximum levels. Cell protection based exclusively on cell voltages which may not provide full over-current protection.

This error is triggered when the difference in voltage between the two measurements exceeds the ‘Pack Voltage Mismatch Threshold’ setting in the BMS profile (under Pack Settings). If this error is triggered, the BMS will assume that it cannot accurately measure the voltage of the battery pack and will go into a voltage failsafe mode.

3.4.29 turn off and will NOT cause the BMS to go into any degraded operating mode. While this error code will 3.4.30 not impact the operation of the BMS, this error message likely indicates a problem exists and the actual 3.4.31 Orion Jr.

3.4.47 of each cell (this is the voltage as if the cell were setting at rest (no load) even when a load is 3.4.48 applied to the cell). The BMS compares each cell’s open circuit voltage to the pack average 3.4.49 open circuit voltage and if they differ more than the preset value in the profile, a weak cell fault 3.4.50 is triggered.

3.4.67 http://www.orionbms.com/troubleshooting. 3.4.68 Orion Jr. BMS Operation Manual 3.4.69 43 3.4.70 P0A0B – Internal Logic Fault Code 3.4.71 This error code indicates that the Orion Jr. BMS has determined that an internal hardware fault has occurred. If this error message occurs, please download the associated freeze frame data and contact the 3.4.72 factory or authorized dealer for assistance.
Page 35
3.4.83 This error code indicates that the Orion Jr. BMS has determined that an internal hardware fault has occurred. If this error message occurs, please download the associated freeze frame data and contact the 3.4.84 factory or authorized dealer for assistance. Please save the freeze frame data and send it along with 3.4.85 any other relevant information to the factor as it may be crucial for appropriately repairing the unit.

3.4.99 This fault code is triggered if the voltage of an individual cell (as measured by the BMS) exceeds 3.4.100 volts. This fault code will only trigger after a number of samplings over the period of 1 minute to 3.4.101 prevent false positives. If this fault triggers, it will cause the BMS to enter into a voltage failsafe 3.4.102 condition disabling all charge and discharge.
Page 37
3.4.115 This fault code is set if the total pack voltage sensor reads zero volts. This error will also cause a voltage redundancy fault code. This fault code may be the result of the voltage tap connection not being 3.4.116 connected when the BMS was turned on, a wiring error on the total pack voltage sensor, a voltage tap 3.4.117 that is wired to the wrong location or an internal BMS error.

3.4.131 Important Note: Weak pack faults are informational errors only and have NO DIRECT IMPACT on 3.4.132 the operation of the BMS. This error code will NOT cause the charge or discharge enable outputs 3.4.133 turn off and will NOT cause the BMS to go into any degraded operating mode. While this error code will 3.4.134 not impact the operation of the BMS, this error message likely indicates a problem exists and the actual...

3.4.148 output and any current is discharged after the set amount of time passes. Charge limit enforcement corresponds to charge current; discharge limit enforcement corresponds to discharge current. This error 3.4.149 can be falsely triggered if the current sensor polarity is backwards. 3.4.150 When this error is triggered, the BMS is put into a failsafe mode and all 3 charge / discharge / charger 3.4.151 enable outputs are turned off in the event the outputs are wired backwards.

3.4.166 These 3 fault codes are caused when charge or discharge current (respectively) either exceeds the limit set by the BMS or continues after the digital on/off outputs are turned off. For example, if the BMS 3.4.167 has set a discharge current limit (DCL) of 50 amps and the BMS measures 100 amps for an amount of 3.4.168 time exceeding the limit in the profile, it will set the discharge limit enforcement fault since more current...

3.4.182 (Also P0A06 – Charge Limit Enforcement Fault and P0A07 – Discharge Limit Enforcement Fault) 3.4.183 These 3 fault codes are caused when charge or discharge current (respectively) either exceeds the limit set by the BMS or continues after the digital on/off outputs are turned off. For example, if the BMS 3.4.184 has set a discharge current limit (DCL) of 50 amps and the BMS measures 100 amps for an amount of...
