Hey @GreenDynamix - Did you buy your BMS from Overkill, or did you buy a stock JDB unit? If it is from Overkill, Steve is really, really good at responding to virtually any question or issue. He may recognize something simple in your situation, or he may need to replace your BMS. Not to make you feel bad, but if you didn't buy from Overkill this may serve as a lesson for others that they should buy from Overkill.Xiaoxiang does not ask for password but Carplounge asked and I inserted 000000 and it worked. In short, I read another thread on this forum where it was recommended that I click "the device can be connected" or something similar on the top right of the app. I did so and can now read and edit all the parameters
The new problem is that the BMS appear to be in the off state so that the battery terminals read 0V. Again bypassing the BMS using a multimeter shows 52.5V. If I disconnect the negative terminal linking the battery pack to the BMS and reconnect, the external terminals read 52.5V. Once I connect the charge controller however, the charge controller screen jumps to 57.5V and practically doesn't charge the battery (only 0.1A). I'm totally at loss as to what is actually going on.
Does anyone know of a way to reset the protection stats in the Xiaoxiang app? I've been running some experiments forcing cell overvoltage, under voltage, and low temp events, but now I'd like to reset those counts so that if I see a non-zero on any of them I know something happened that shouldn't have. I can't remember what the count was last time, so when I see it say that there have been N cell overvoltage cut-offs I don't know if something new happened, or if it's still what it was before.
Just to save you from trying: I went into the settings for the phone and cleared the data for the app. When I ran the app I had to re-answer the preliminary questions about letting it use the GPS and what the capacity of the battery was. However, all the protection counts were the same. If I were to guess, that must mean that the protection counts are kept on the BMS, not by the app.That's a good question. I've experimented the same with the temperature settings. I also did similar tests with the Victron BMV-712, just to hear the alarm.

Unfortunately for me I did not buy mine from overkill. It came built-in with a 48v battery I bought from China.Xiaoxiang does not ask for password but Carplounge asked and I inserted 000000 and it worked.

What version? And why do you like it?Just updated to the latest version....I like it.
Question regarding the Dashboard on v21 and v26. My BMS has two temp sensors, one on the cells and then the one incorporated in the JBD BMS. The dashboard shows the temp of the BMS, but I'd like to change it to show the temp of the cells, but haven't found a way to do this. So now Temp-2 is feeding the dashboard, but I'd like to change it to Temp-1. Is it possible to select the temp input for the dashboard?
