Advanced Features:
PLUSNET
The KiloVault iT PlusNET enables multiple lithium batteries to operate as “one system” for data measurement, typically with a host battery leading the data from a linked set of lithium batteries. PlusNET will disconnect communication between each battery to reduce the self discharge of each battery. Bluetooth will still be active allowing monitoring using the KiloVault iT app. You can reactivate PlusNet by using the KiloVault iT app. If you do not wish to connect the communication cables between batteries it is recommended that you turn PlusNET off to conserve power.

Storage Mode
The HLX+ series battery can be switched between Active Mode and Storage Mode using the KiloVault iT app. Storage Mode will turn off the Bluetooth function on each battery reducing the self discharge rate and can hold a charge for a longer period of time. The battery will not be visible using the KiloVault iT app and will require a reset by a 5 second long press of the power Button.


KiloVault Bridge Monitoring:
The KiloVault iT app will also connect to KiloVault Bridge (Sold Separately) for complete Bank information. Instead of measuring the current flowing in/out of the battery bank using a shunt, it can communicate directly with the battery management system (BMS) and obtain more accurate state of charge (SoC) readings compared to traditional battery monitors.
Other readings including voltage, current, capacity, warning codes, and number of paralleled or series batteries are also available to help users avoid abnormal conditions and extend the lifetime of the battery bank.

Limitations:
-It can only work with one battery at a time.
-Your phone must support Bluetooth 4.0
-The battery you are monitoring must be less than 16ft/5m away.
If you want to monitor your battery with another phone, youll need to exit this app on the first phone (a limitation of Bluetooth).
