    Note that the battery power connection cables exit the battery on the right- hand side near the floor on all the LiTE 2 Commercial HV and HV+ models. This is to suit the bottom entry of the floor-standing ATESS inverters. A cable trench is recommended for routing this cable along with all the other cables going to and from the inverter (a cable tray is an alternative).

    5 LiTE 2 Commercial Installation 5.1 Power Cables Connecting Freedom Won LiTE 2 Commercial to the battery inverter is a simple process. The first step is to connect the positive and negative cables to the inverter terminals or DC busbar if applicable using the applicable lugs (not supplied).
  • Page 19 Freedom Won LiTE Commercial HV and HV+ Installation Manual Revision 1 Danger The LiTE 2 Commercial HV and HV+ range operates at potentially lethal voltages. Hence, the battery cables and connections must be treated with the utmost respect – before connecting the positive and negative cables to the inverter, ensure that the main battery circuit breaker is switched off.

    The SCC rating can be found in the datasheet. 5.2 Grounding Instructions For correct operation and safety, it is crucial to ground the LiTE 2 Commercial HV and HV+ frame correctly. Failure to do so may lead to communication issues and compromise the system's performance.
  • Page 21: Control Interface Can

    5.3 Control Interface CAN For controlling external devices, you will need to connect the CAN Bus control wiring that allows the Battery Management System inside the Freedom Won LiTE 2 to control and interface with these devices. 1. Use a CAT5e or CAT6 ethernet cable to connect the Battery Management System (BMS) inside the Freedom Won LiTE 2 to external devices.
  • Page 22: Can Bus Control - Detailed Description

    Won has developed CAN profiles for most common inverter brands on the market, details are available in the Freedom Won Inverter Compatibility Guide. Freedom Won welcomes requests to develop BMS CAN profiles for additional inverters that are equipped with a CAN interface for BMS integration.
  • Page 23: Can Interface Configuration And Termination Requirements

    • For devices with a separate CAN terminal block (e.g., ATESS), an internal resistor is fitted into the device. • All Freedom Won LiTE 2 models have two CAN plugs for parallel configurations and allow the fitment of termination resistors on end-of-line units.
  • Page 24: Figure 6: Rj45 Plug

    • For parallel LiTE 2 configurations installed on inverter systems where these resistors are not supplied, it is necessary to purchase two from Freedom Won. 5.3.2.4 CAN Bus Cable and Speed Requirements Most brands use 500kbps. If 250kbps is required, it is available on the LiTE 2 with a specific profile loaded and should be requested in the order.
