Getting BMS system out of protection mode

I'm in a yard period and the marina lost power. The batteries were depleted so the BMS has gone into protection mode. Its my understanding that the batteries have the be charged to a point where the system is at a safe voltage level before the system comes out of protection mode.

At the present time if I flip the shore breaker on, the system powers up for approximately 1 minute, then all 4 of the Skyllas go into failure mode and the system shuts down.

However as the Skylla chargers are part of the system - I need to get the system running so the Skyllas will start charging the batts, so in a catch 22.

I'm hoping there is a system reset, but I can't find anything in any of the manuals or on any forum for a workaround.

Any advice greatly appreciated

Kevin

@kevin.tear

Is the led flashing at all? I portant to know how dead the system is.

Has this procedure not worked?
