Re: General questions about the BMS project here please.
Yep i'm modding the code for my setup regards current sensor etc. Regards the timing loop , if i remember correctly (been a while!) the pic keeps count of clock cycles used for any given program , branch or loop. So could we not just count the cycles used , hence time and use that for SOC? I'll look...

Re: General questions about the BMS project here please.
Thanks a lot. Its up an running. Bit the bullet and lashed pbpro on the credit card . I figure its a good investment as i'll need to make changes to the current sensor code soon (going to use a lem hass 300-s). Can't be annoying you guys everytime i need a code change

Re: General questions about the BMS project here please.
Ok i have 2 serial codes from the sensors:
sensor 1 : 28F6877E020000B6
sensor 2 : 28F6C57E020000DC
From what i can see pic basic pro costs $250. Not an option for me right now. Could i impose upon your good self to recompile the master code with these ids? Sorry for being a pain!

I am currently experiencing a problem with getting the master to talk to 1 slave channel of a 16 cell multi board. I can send commands to the slav...
