Abstract
A management system for a multi-cell rechargeable energy storage system (RESS) is capable of wirelessly communicating with an unsecured third-party device. The management system includes a system controller that is in communication with cell monitoring units that are arranged to individually monitor the battery cells. Each cell monitoring unit includes a cell controller that is in communication with a sensor that is arranged to determine a parameter of a respective one of the battery cells of the RESS. Each of the cell controllers is configured to execute a secure wireless communication protocol, and is also configured to execute an open wireless communication protocol. The open wireless communication protocol is activated to enable non-proprietary wireless communication to a proximal third-party device in response to a trigger event.
