Hi!
Although the documentation for the new Lynx Smart BMS 500 is very elaborate, I have a few questions that were not completely clear. Please clarify.
- With the VE.BUS BMS there has to be a Digital Mult Control to adjust current. It was connected directly to the VE.Bus BMS. What is the case with the Smart BMS 500. Can the Venus device be used to adjust current? Does the system still need the DMC? In this case is it connected directly to the Multi?
- The documentation says: DVCC allows the Lynx Smart BMS to control Victron Energy inverter/charger. Does this mean that without DVCC the inverter is not shut down separately as with VE.BUS BMS, only the contactor is opened?
- How does the charge disconnect function work? Does the Smart BMS communicate via the Venus device with the VE.BUS system? Or simply it just opens the contactor and shuts even the loads off?
- How does the current sensing work (like Mains detector)?
- In the schematics in the documentation the Lynx distributor is used for connecting the batteries. Is it advisable to remove the manual main switch from the system completely?
The clarifications are highly appreciated.
