1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing Eagle Eye Power Solution’s BMS icom. The BMS icom is designed to
monitor and analyze the aging status of up to (24) cells (4) jars by measuring and recording:
§ STRING: Voltage & Current
§ JAR / CELL: Voltage, Internal Resistance, Connection Resistance & Temperature
The BMS icom comes complete with the battery management software package that allows ALL
battery systems to be monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year via remote computer(s). This
software offers the most comprehensive battery diagnosis and reporting capabilities to ensure
the integrity of your critical battery backup.

2. Safety Overview
Eagle Eye Power Solutions is not responsible for personnel safety issues.
§ Only qualified personnel with proper tools and equipment should work on battery
systems.
§ To avoid damage and injury due to the short circuiting of battery terminals, wrap
insulated tape around all metallic-conducted parts. This is not necessary for the
installation tool area.
§ Do not wear metallic items such as jewelry and watches while working around batteries.
Be sure to use insulated gloves and goggles when handling batteries.
§ Ensure an installation supervisor is on hand when connecting the BMS and battery post
to avoid fire or personal injury.
§ Make all personnel fully aware of safety guidelines.

5. Installation Instructions
The following steps will provide the correct workflow for installing the BMS icom battery
monitoring system and all of its components to a battery string.
Step 1: Mount BMS Unit
Parts:
BMS MPU, mounting hardware (not included)
Tools:
Drill, screwdriver
Mount the BMS icom close to the batteries which it will monitor using the mounting brackets on
the side of the unit.
Step 2: Clamp Setup
Parts:
O-Type and/or C-Type Clamps
Tools:
Phillips screwdriver
The BMS uses two different types of clamps based on the battery connection. C-Type clamps
are used for batteries connected by bus-bar; O-Type clamps for batteries connected by cable.

Voltage + Current
(2 fuse)
There are two board types for clamps: voltage and voltage+current. The voltage clamp reads
voltage whereas the voltage+current clamp reads voltage in addition to resistance. The
connection pattern for the clamps is as follows:

(1) Prepare for Connection
1. Organize clamps based on type and verify that all clamps are present
2. Ensure all intercell connections are secure and torqued to spec
(2) Connection of Clamps (C-Type)
1. Place the clamp in the center of the bus-bar and tighten down using the provided
screws
2. If the bus-bar has a cover, cut out an area so the cover sits snugly against the clamp
3. Attach additional clamps, be sure all clamps are facing the same direction
C-Clamp on Busbar
(3) Connection of Clamps (O-Type)
1. Place clamp in center of cable and tighten sensing screw into the cable
2. Ensure that the screw has penetrated sufficiently into the cable
NOTE: If the cable is too large for the clamp it can cut down to accommodate the
size
3. Attach additional clamps, be sure all clamps are facing the same direction

Step 3: Sensing Cable Connection
Parts:
Clamps, clamp covers, voltage sensing cables, current sensing cables
Tools:
Phillips screwdriver, 2-3mm flathead, duct, duct tape, cable ties/zip ties, wire cutter,
wire stripper (22 AWG)
(1) Connection Order
There are two sensing cables, voltage and current, which connect to the clamps. Each cable
has a number of sensing leads which are color coded to help with installation. The connection
order for the sensing cable leads is:
Connection of Vs & Is Leads
Connection
Voltage
Current
Clamp 1
Grey
Black
Battery 1
Clamp 2
Green
Battery 2
Clamp 3
Blue
Red
Battery 3
Clamp 4
Orange
Battery 4
Clamp 5
Brown
White
NOTE: Total sensing cable length should be as short as possible to decrease noise, if cable
length is longer than needed, shorten its length (see step 2)
WARNING: Do not plug connectors for any cable into BMS icom until all sensing leads have
been connected to the clamps on the battery string
(2) Connect Sensing Leads to Clamps
1. Observe carefully which slot on the board is used for each cable.
Voltage Board
Voltage+Current Board
2. Insert the end of the sensing lead into the correct slot following the sequence in the
“Connection of Vs & Is Leads” table above
3. Using a 2-3mm flathead driver, tighten the screw down all the way until you can
firmly pull on the sensing lead without it coming out
4. Place protective covers over the clamps

Step 4: Control Power Cable
Parts:
Control Power Cable, C-Clamp (if applicable)
Tools:
Phillips driver, cable/zip ties
The BMS icom is powered by the batteries which it is connected to. The control power cables
are also used to monitor string voltage.
(1) Remove Fuses
1. Each control power cable has a fuse built in.
2. Remove each fuse prior to connecting cables to the batteries
1A Fuse in Holder
(2) Verify Connection Location
1. Determine the best place to connect the control power cables
2. If using bus-bar connections, use the c-clamp to connect to the bus-bar
3. If using cable connections, connect directly to the post
C-Clamp for Control Power Cable O-Clamp for Control Power Cable
(3) Connect Control Power Cables
1. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the most positive connection of the battery
string
2. Connect the blue negative (-) cable to the most negative connection of the battery
string.
NOTE: The connector for both cables is colored red, ensure that the correct colored cable is
connected to the correct polarity of the string
