buck boost and LiFePO4 - best settings

I would like to know the best settings for my 50A buck boost and LiFePO4 smart battery LFP-Smart 12,8/150.


First things I changed was within TSConfig:

20: Output voltage from 14,4V to 14,2V (recommended for LFP-Smart 12,8/150)


31: Battery voltage charge protection (10.0V (out) and 20A)

The problem is, that the voltage at my battery (connected at AB from BMS12/200) is at first try lower than 10,0V


50: Converter on/off by input voltage


I tried to reduce the Switch off delay from 1 min to zero (no load from starting battery after switch off).

But this is not working – it’s like pumping (on – off – on …).

1 minute of 50A from starting battery will not hurt – hopefully


Are there more important configurations to change in my setting with LFP-Smart and BMS?


THX for any help

31 is for the output not the input

To prevent discharging the starter battery after the motor stops you should set the 24 higher.

THX for your feedback :-)

You are right - 31 is regarding the output (monitor 3) but nonetheless I disabled the 31 to always start with maximum output current.

Regarding 24 I will give it a try.

I am using the purple pin to switch the converter on /off. Should I also select 'Powerdown' in that case? And can I use the same settings (other than those 2)
