Voltage Calibration

  • Measure the voltage from Cell 1 to 1N and enter this value in the Applied Cell 1 Voltage field and select the Calibrate Voltage box.
  • Measure the voltage from Bat+ to Bat– and enter this value in the Applied Battery Voltage field and select the Calibrate Battery Voltage box.
  • Measure the voltage from Pack+ to Pack– and enter this value in the Applied Pack Voltage field and select the Calibrate Pack Voltage box. If the voltage is not present, then turn the charge and discharge FETs on by sending the ManufacturerAccess() FET Control Command (0x0022). For instructions to accomplish this, please refer to Section 4.1.6 Advanced Comm SMB Screen.
  • Press the Calibrate Gas Gauge button to calibrate the voltage measurement system.
  • Deselect the Calibrate Voltage boxes after voltage calibration has completed.
