Battery Simulator 1200 Installation Manual Bloomy Energy Systems 8
2. Installation
To install your Battery Simulator 1200, follow the instructions below.
1. Mount the Battery Simulator 1200 in a 19-in. rack. It uses 1U of space. The cooling air flows from
left to right when viewed from the front of the unit. You can mount additional units above and
below; no space is required between units.
2. Make wiring connections as needed (see Table 1: Connections for Cells 1 –12 and Table 2: Aux
I/O Connections). See also Figure 3: Wiring Remote Sense
3. Connect the AC power cord to the back panel of the unit and to a properly grounded power
receptacle controlled by an input power disconnect device near the equipment and within easy
reach of the operator.
CAUTION
DO NOT open the equipment enclosure. This product contains no user-serviceable components.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury.

Pin number Signal
Pin 1 Sense+
Pin 2 Vout+
Pin 3 Vout–
Pin 4 Sense–
Cell Connection Function
Vout +/– Cell simulator output capable of both sourcing and sinking current
Sense +/– Remote sensing of the Vout +/–signals
NOTE: When connected, the system compensates for voltage drop when current flows through the Vout
+/– cables. The Battery Simulator 1200 contains resistors that connect Vout +/– to Sense +/– to allow
proper sensing at the output connector if the Sense lines are not connected. The system is designed to
compensate for up to 200 mV of total round-trip cable loss.
