2. BMS1802 Pinouts and Descriptions

On BMS1802 connector 1 carries the cell connections, connector 5 the external temperature sensors and connector 4 an external RUN LED. The isolated daisy chain has an INPUT port towards the master (ISO IN: RJ45 connector 2 and 4-pin connector 7) and an OUTPUT port to the next module (ISO OUT: RJ45 connector 3 and 4-pin connector 6); the two connectors of one port are the same lines, so use one of them, and the two ports cannot be swapped. 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 BMS1802.
