2. BMS1601 Pinouts and Descriptions

On BMS1601 there are connectors for the cell connections, temperature sensors, relay outputs, isolated communications and I/Os, and screw terminals for the battery, the load, the MOSFET middle point and the precharge and pre-discharge resistors. 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 BMS1601.
