2. Setup and Installation
Proper installation of the JKBMS Adapter Board is crucial for optimal performance and safety. Follow these guidelines carefully.
General Connection Guidelines
- Auxiliary Power Supply: The auxiliary power supply interface has positive on the left and negative on the right. If the repaired battery pack voltage is below 40V, an external power supply is required.
- 2.54 mm Pin Connections: Pins with the same serial number adjacent to the pin represent the same node. When multiple plugs are present in the sampling cable of the protection board, they must be alternately inserted into two rows in sequence.
- 2.0 mm Pin Connections: Similar to 2.54 mm pins, pins with the same serial number next to the pin represent the same node. If multiple plugs are used in the sampling cable, they should be alternately inserted on the two rows of pins in sequence.

3. Operating Instructions
The JKBMS Adapter Board functions as an interface for your JK BMS. Its operation is passive, meaning it facilitates connections rather than performing active control. Once correctly installed and connected to your JK BMS and battery pack, the system will operate according to the BMS's programming.
Ensure all connections are secure and correctly aligned according to the pin descriptions provided in the setup section and your specific JK BMS manual. Incorrect connections can lead to system malfunction or damage.
4. Maintenance
The JKBMS Adapter Board requires minimal maintenance. To ensure its longevity and reliable performance:
- Keep the board clean and free from dust and debris.
- Avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
- Periodically inspect all connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.
- Do not attempt to repair or modify the board yourself. Contact support if issues arise.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your JKBMS Adapter Board, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- No Communication/Incorrect Readings: Verify all pin connections are correctly seated and aligned according to the serial numbers. Ensure no pins are bent or damaged.
- System Not Powering On (if applicable): Check the auxiliary power supply connection, especially if the battery pack voltage is below 40V. Confirm correct polarity (positive left, negative right).
- Intermittent Issues: Inspect cables for damage or loose connections. Ensure the operating environment is stable and free from excessive vibration or electromagnetic interference.
- Refer to BMS Manual: For issues related to battery management functions, consult the specific instruction manual for your JK BMS.
If problems persist after performing these checks, please contact JKBMS customer support for further assistance.
