5.6 Commissioning Parallel Systems
When commissioning a system with parallel batteries ensure that all batteries are charged to 100% State of Charge (SOC)
before setting all batteries to ON.
CAUTION!
Failure to ensure all batteries are at equal SOC when commisioning a
paralleling system may result in blown battery fuses.
Before energizing power electronics ensure that all batteries are set to ON.
6. Networking
6.1 AEBus Network
The AEBus is utilized by all networked AES batteries to coordinate all voltage, temperature, and current data. Network
Terminators are required for proper functioning of the AES network. Care should be taken to ensure they are installed.
6.2 Conguration with Power Conversion and Monitoring Devices
AES batteries must be set up to work with Power Conversion and Monitoring devices in either an Open Loop or Closed Loop
conguration. The charge and discharge settings in a Open Loop conguration are set up through the controller of the Power
Conversion device at the time of installation. In a Closed Loop conguration, charge and discharge settings are dynamically
controlled by the BMS of the AES Battery over a connection with the Power Conversion device network. Closed Loop
communication with a Power Conversion device network requires the use of a LYNK Gateway Communication device (p/n 950-
0015) available from Discover Battery.
For Closed Loop and Open Loop conguration details please refer to the appropriate Application Note for your Power
Conversion device available from the Discoverbattery.com website, or contact your Discover Battery provider for assistance.
Note: Schneider Electric Conext branded devices communicate over Xanbus forming a Closed Loop conguration using the
Xanbus port located on the AES battery and do not require the use of a LYNK Gateway Communication device (p/n 950-0015).
Refer to Application Note 885-0013 Closed Loop Integration with Xanbus Enabled Schneider Electric Conext Products, for
detailed instructions.
