Attention: Do not make any connection to the Battery Module until you have thoroughly read and
understood this entire manual.
The Run Button and the Power Switch are located on the right side of the Battery Module as shown above.
The Power Switch is a RED mechanical ON/OFF switch that enables/disables the power supply of the BMS.
Set the Power Switch to ON (1) to start activation of the battery power supply, Set to OFF (0) to shut down
completely.
The Run Button is a GREEN LED button that when pressed for 2 seconds will initiate the startup process of the
battery.
Pressing the Run Button for 5 seconds will shut down the battery (the BMS will remain powered).
The Run Button will settle as a steady GREEN color if the battery is operating correctly. If the battery is low
on charge, the Run Button will blink GREEN.
If the front LED bar displays a flashing RED LED in conjunction with the other LED colors, the fault should
automatically clear within 4 minutes after a restart. In any case, it is required to inspect the system settings
before attempting a new restart, following the steps in the manual.
If the LED bar is all illuminated in RED, there is a major fault and you should not attempt any further operation
of the battery. Contact Deka Duration support at durationsupport@dekabatteries.com.
There is an RS232 Operator Port which will allow you to check all parameters of the Battery Module. Full
instructions on how to interface to the RS232 port can be found in this manual.
