¶ Identify a Specific CellMon using the LED
Sometimes it can be necessary to identify a specific CellMon CMU (Cell Monitoring Unit) within a battery pack. When not familiar with the battery configuration, the following method will assist identifying a specific module using the on-board status LEDs.
For example, if a cell is reporting an outlying temperature compared to the rest of the battery pack, the technician can quickly identify the cell module and find out the reason (i.e. loose busbar bolt, etc.).
Warning: Take precautions when using this tool as the system does not monitor the battery pack whilst you're in this mode.
¶ 1. Navigate to the Hardware menu.
¶ 2. Navigate to the CellMon tab.
¶ 3. Start the Device LED Identifier.
¶ 4. Enter the appropriate Node Identifier.
¶ 5. Turn ON or OFF the red and green LEDs.
¶ 6. Press Start to run in this mode.
¶ 7. Observe the LEDs on the CellMon hardware.
(Example below)
¶ 8. When finished, press Stop.
Ensure that the normal monitoring returns once finished (i.e. Node Chart is displaying live readings).
