System Description:

The system consists of these three main parts:

  1. the BSMon main unit (interface between PC and Battery)
  2. a special cable
  3. the computerized battery analyzer (called CBA unit)

The main unit provides the USB connectivity with the PC and accepts the installation of the battery through a V-lock interface. It connects and drives the CBA unit by means of a special multicore cable.

Additionally the main unit can be used as a standalone battery reader and, if installed on any V-Lock enabled device together with a battery, permits tracking down the battery behaviour while in use.

BSMon can efficiently read and test both non-Blueshape® batteries and non V-Lock batteries: in this case a special cable with banana plugs must be used to connect the battery to be analyzed with the main unit through the lateral red and black sockets.


System requirements for software installation:

  • OS: Windows 2000/ XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8 either 32bit and 64bit (the drivers for the USB interface may not work properly under older OS such as ME, 98, 95)
  • Minimum configuration: Pentium 3 or higher, 128Mb RAM or greater, 25MB HD disk space
  • USB 1.0 port or greater
  • USB cable
  • BSMon unit
  • CBA unit (Computerized Battery Analyzer unit) with the special multicore cable
