Hello,
As outlined in the Quick Start Guide it is recommended that a few parameters be configured to achieve accurate gauging of the target battery (Design Capacity, Design Energy, Terminate Voltage, Taper Rate). I understand that these parameters are accessed using the Extended Commands, specifically using the DataClass() and DataBlock() commands. However, in practice I am having difficulty locating the address of the Class I wish to access, and the locations of the parameters within said Class. Inconsistencies exist between the Quick Start Guide and Technical Reference Manual examples, and no full listing of parameter locations are given.
The Quick Start Guide offers an example to use DataClass() to access the "State Subclass" at 0x52. Where did this address come from? I find no reference of it anywhere.
Also, the Quick Start Guide continues the example to read and write a new Design Capacity by accessing it within the "State Subclass" DataBlock (offset 0x00) using command 0x4A. Again, where did this 0x4A come from? In fact, the example given in the Technical Reference Manual says the Design Capacity can be accessed using the command 0x43. Where did this come from, and which is correct?
I spent an entire day playing around with these addresses and have determined that in some cases, neither document is correct. My questions therefore is: Where are the listings of "Class" and "Parameter' address locations for use with the DataClass() and DataBlock() commands? How do I actually update these values?
Thanks,
Ryan
