Automatic reboot Venus OS after losing Bluetooth JK BMS connections

I'm using a Cerbo GX-s in conjunction with a JK BMS over Bluetooth. Sometimes the thing loses connection and generates an alarm. After reboot it just works fine.

Any idea what could cause this problem? And how could I make it reboot automatically after lost BMS connection?

You could set something up in node red to handle an auto reboot if bms is lost. If you go that route I would be sure to use a timed delay in order to make sure the gx has enough time to fully reboot or you could get stuck in a loop.
