4.3 Connection Steps (Dual Hall Sensor Expansion)
For simultaneous monitoring of charging and discharging performance, you can utilize dual Hall sensors. Note that one of the Hall sensors is not included and must be purchased separately.
- Connect the Hall Sensors to the Monitor: Plug both Hall sensor cables into the designated ports on the battery monitor.
- Connect the Monitor to the Battery: Connect the power cables from the monitor to the battery.
- Connect Controller and Inverter to the Battery: Ensure the charging current passes through one Hall sensor and the discharging current through the other before connecting to the controller and inverter.
