DPSI BMS Operating Manual Version 1.0
Page 4 of 32
Due to the manifold information indicated by the DPSI BMS,
malfunctions in the receiver set can be detected:
- Sticky control rods or defective servos can be diagnosed due
to higher current consumption.
- Eventual malfunction of a battery or in the battery switch
(e.g. inbalanced discharge of the batteries) can be detected
as well.
- Programming of end stops of servos is simplified where no
optical control is possible (e.g. throttle servo), because the
increasing current will indicate mechanical end stop.
As a specialty, both battery circuits in the DPSI BMS are galvanically
separated! This means, no electrical connection between each other
exists. This allows you to use one battery for the ignition system and
another one for the receiver set and operate both without any
influence. Due to the galvanic separation, it is also possible to operate
the DPSI BMS in connection with all battery switches currently
available on the market.
The measured values are derived from high precision 12 bit A/D
converters. Due to this elaborate design, constant currents of 10 amps
are permissible for each channel. Peak currents of up to 30 amps per
channel are permissible, thus allowing the usage of the DPSI BMS
even in big model airplanes where many servos are in use.
In case only one battery is to be monitored, a single channel version of
the DPSI BMS is available. Here, just one battery is connected and its
parameters (voltage, current, capacity, etc.) are displayed.
