Context
This section describes how to connect the CIM power cable to the adapter and the CIM
communications cable to the UPS in the UPS scenario.

Figure 4-3 CIM and BIM networking (in the UPS scenario)

Procedure
Step 1 Connect the cable between the CIM and the Hall effect sensor.

 When a CIM manages multiple battery strings, first connect the Hall effect sensors on the positive
and negative cables of battery string 1 respectively to the corresponding ports on the CIM. Then
connect the Hall effect sensors on battery string 2 to the CIM in the same way, and so on. The
following describes cable connections by using one battery string as an example.
 If the battery string is configured with the neutral wire, measure the currents of the positive and
negative battery string cables. If the battery string is not configured with the neutral wire, measure
the current of either the positive or negative battery string cable.
 If the battery string is configured with a neutral wire and each of the positive and
negative battery string cables connects to one Hall effect sensor, connect the Hall effect
sensor on the positive battery string terminal side to the HALL_1 current monitoring port
on the CIM, and connect the Hall effect sensor on the negative battery string terminal
side to the HALL_2 current monitoring port on the CIM.

Figure 4-4 Cable connections to Hall effect sensors (1)

If the battery string is not configured with a neutral wire, connect the Hall effect sensor on the positive
or negative battery string cable to the HALL_1 current monitoring port on the CIM.
 If the battery string is configured with a neutral wire and each of the positive and
negative battery string cables connects to two or more Hall effect sensors. For example,
if each of the positive and negative battery string cables connects to two Hall effect
sensors, connect the Hall effect sensors on the positive battery string terminal side to the
HALL_1 and HALL_2 current monitoring ports on the CIM, and connect the Hall effect
sensors on the negative battery string terminal side to the HALL_3 and HALL_4 current
monitoring ports on the CIM.

If the positive or negative battery string cable is too thick to be routed through the Hall effect sensor, or
the measurement range of the Hall effect sensor is not enough, you can connect two or more Hall effect
sensors to each of the positive and negative battery string cables to monitor the current of one battery
string.

6 CIM and BIM Networking

Prerequisites
Before networking, ensure that all the CIMs and BIMs have no network parameters, that is,
the RF_Z indicator on the CIM is steady green and the RUN/ALM indicator on the BIM is
steady red.

 If the RF_Z indicator on the CIM is not steady on (green), press and hold down the
networking switch on the CIM for 10–20 seconds to clear the original network.
 If the RUN/ALM indicator on the BIM is not steady red, hold down the BIM networking
switch for at least 5 seconds to clear the original network.
 Do not operate the networking switch during networking. Otherwise, the networking fails.

Context
To prevent the BIM in a group connects to another CIM, ensure that only one CIM is under
networking at a time. That is, only the RF_Z indicator on this CIM is blinking at super short
intervals.

Procedure
Step 1 Press the networking switch on the CIM for 2 seconds. The ALM indicator blinks red once,
and the RF_Z indicator turns from steady green to blinking green at super short intervals,
which indicates that the CIM is being networked.

 Blinking at long intervals: The indicator is on for 1s and then off for 1s alternately.
 Blinking at super short intervals: The indicator is on for 0.05s and then off for 0.05s alternately.

Step 2 Hold down the networking switch on the BIM for 2 seconds. When the RUN/ALM indicator
turns from steady red to blinking green at super short intervals, and finally to blinking green at
long intervals, the BIM connects to the CIM network.

 It is recommended that BIMs be networked from the positive battery string terminal according to the
battery cable connection sequence.
 Batteries are numbered depending on the sequence of connecting BIMs to the CIM.

Step 3 Perform networking operations on the next BIM only after networking for the previous BIM
is successful. Repeat Step 2 to add remaining BIMs to the CIM network.
Step 4 Press the CIM networking switch for 2 seconds. When the RF_Z indicator on the CIM turns
from blinking green at super short intervals to blinking green at long intervals, the networking
is complete.

After the networking is complete, if the ALM indicator on the CIM is steady on, the number of devices
online is smaller than the value of BIM number. Check that BIM number is set to a correct value and
that the BIM is successfully networked.

Step 5 (Optional) If multiple CIMs are cascaded, repeat Step 1 to Step 4 to perform networking for
remaining CIMs and BIMs.
----End

Follow-up Procedure
If the UPS does not charge batteries for a long time, power off the CIMs to prevent damage to
batteries. After the CIMs have been powered off for 30 minutes, the BIMs will hibernate
automatically if the voltage of 2 V batteries is less than 2.1 V or the voltage of 12 V batteries
is less than 12.6 V.

 When the UPS is charging batteries, and the voltage of 2 V batteries is greater than 2.1 V or the
voltage of 12 V batteries is greater than 12.6 V, the BIMs will start automatically.
 The battery voltage for enabling the BIMs to automatically hibernate or start varies under different
conditions.

Step 2 Remove the iBAT cable terminals, and remove the iBAT from the battery.
Step 3 Secure the new iBAT on the fastener, and connect the iBAT cables.
Step 4 Hold down the networking switch on the iBOX for 2s. The RF_Z indicator on the iBOX
changes from blinking green at long intervals to blinking green at super short intervals, which
indicates that the iBOX is being networked.
Step 5 Hold down the iBAT networking switch for 2 seconds. When the RUN/ALM indicator turns
from steady red to blinking green at short intervals, and finally to blinking green at long
intervals, the iBAT connects to the iBOX network.
Step 6 Hold down the networking switch on the iBOX for 2 seconds. When the RF_Z indicator on
the iBOX turns from blinking green at super short intervals to blinking green at long intervals,
the networking is complete.
