2. BMS1202 Pinouts and Descriptions

On BMS1202 one connector carries the cell connections and the temperature sensors, and four connectors (two RJ45 and two 4-pin connectors) carry the isolated daisy chain; all four are the same port, so any of them can go to the master or to the next module. The ADDRESS switch sets the module ID and the LINE TERM switch terminates the daisy chain. Arrange the cables with the pinouts below; a number in the figures opens the table of that connector.

Danger

Check every connection and cable before you plug a connector into the BMS1202.
