What do I need to do if my battery goes into Battery Under-Voltage or Cell Under-Voltage
Protection Mode?
• To begin the recovery process, connect the RV to an external 120VAC (up to 30A) power source, and
ensure that the inverter/charger power switch is in the “ON” position.
o For a Protection (hard fault), the protection mode will need to be cleared by allowing the cell
voltage to reach the recovery and restarting the battery.
• When the unit is depleted below 10% SOC, this can cause the SOC% and voltage levels to be out of
calibration, the only way to recalibrate the BMS is to charge the unit to 54.4V which will re-calibrate the
SOC to 100%.
NOTE: If a battery is allowed to let the minimum cell voltage to be lower than 2000mV, it
is unlikely that the lithium battery can be recovered.
Why is the SOC% (State of Charge) not showing o
n the Firefly Screen?
• When the unit is depleted below 10% SOC, this can cause the SOC% and voltage levels to be out of
calibration.
• There are times when you will see that this system’s total voltage is either increasing or decreasing but
the SOC% may appear to be locked on a certain percentage. The BMS (Battery Management System)
can fall out of calibration over time.
• When this occurs, change the inverter #9 setting to 54.4 and fully charging the battery with shore
power. It will recalibrate the battery BMS.
NOTE: After calibration, it is recommended to re-set Inverter setting #9 back to 54.0V.
