Fucked up my BMS

Hey guys I need some help with my BMS of a battery from AliExpress.

I own two of those batteries,

1x 100Ah - BMS: 16S100A
1x 150Ah - BMS: 16S200A

I have the batts on a Deye 12kw Hybrid and everything works fine.

Some days ago i contacted the seller to send me some information for setting the charge rate, reported by the BMS to the inverter. I used the software and read out the configuration to alter the settings because the charge rate of the 150Ah battery was a little low 0,15c i guess.

Well he came up with a firmware file i should use. Ok i asked him if i can use it on both batteries because they have different BMS versions (100A and 200A). Well all good i shall go ahead and i did it. Thats the firmware he send me.

All went good nothing blew up and my problem with the low charge rate was solved. Both batteries reported 160A combined (a little high but i can reduce it by the deye).

Now to my problem:

A day later the 150Ah battery threw out a undervoltage alarm.
It went out that the SOC was way off and wrong calculated. I had a felling and it went out that the 16S200A BMS showed amp readings way of the reality

real ampsBMS amp

The 200A BMS (right picture) ) reports roughly ~0.5*A for the charge rate. Discharge the same.

Ok i didnt freaked out, i thought the calibration of the internal shunt was not right. So i tried to calibrate it by the software.

Well, it didnt worked out for me. I was able to calibrate the reading of the BMS a little but the factor 0.5A stayed mostly the same.
I guess the calculation is hard coded in the firmware file for the different BMS versions.

I read a thread that a JK BMS showed a similart behaviour and searched for a similar parameter to set the resistance in the software.
But i couldnt find anything related.

Maybe someone has the correct firmware file for this 16S200A BMS or an hint how i can fix this in the software.

Many thanks guys!

Congrats on the successful BMS repair.

Can you please upload both firmware files in the resource section together with a proper walk through so other can profite from your know how instead just knowing you did it?
 
Solved with the right firmware ?
Greetings! Can I ask please, we have same battery but I don’t have software. I also bought to aliexpress but until know he didn’t send us any software or firmware. Please share to me the app. I will really really be glad.

Thank you in advance

Yes i will send you the firmware. Just give me your email for the Dropbox Link
 
Enclosed is the software i used. Its browser based and a little shabby but works great overall. You have to use the special wired cable that came with the battery.
