Posted January 5Jan 5 Morning to all. Two queries please : 1. Has anyone running a Multiplus on 'Keep Batteries Charged' noticed its incorporating some kind of schedule. Busy balancing my bank at the moment due to some imbalances and it only starts the charge at around 6am in the morning and around 6pm in the evening everything goes to idle way below the charge voltage set. Ok fine, I guess the BMS prompted the voltage difference but why does charging stop? I'm trying to 'recondition' an older cell to catch up to the rest at the 49V mark. So far been able to reduce the spread from 100mV to 30 which im thankful for but everything going to idle at or around the same time each day is strange. 2. As its my first time being able to play with Batteryview since i got my own cable i was trying to do some history log dumps from the History Data Window tab. Since I was in the history tab and clicking SoC reset asks you where to save the file I went ahead and did that and to my dismay I see it actually pushed a reset command through to the batteries as well. This is somewhat concerning as I really hope I did not just void any type of warranty with this action by potentially wiping any history it had? What exactly does the SoC reset do? Thanks

Thanks If at 49v you have cell imbalances then the cell has probably had it.

Yea I'm fearing the worst myself, but that said I've been doing 0.1V increments per day for the past month @ 1A charge and it seems to have significantly lowered the spread. Everything is within 20mV now at each voltage set point. The real test will be the full discharge from the 52.8V mark. The SoC resets is my main concern now - as stated originally i thought i was pulling a log of resets, but it actually issued it, so I immediately did it on all 4 just to have a common reference point. Things are much more aligned now, yet still a bit out of place. For example at the 51.4V mark its thinking its at 97%. Considering another reset when stable temps and spread at the required 100% mark then discharge and recharge from there to train as it may
