Below you can find documentation for all parts of the TSV (Tractive System Voltage) subsystem of the LFEV. The Tractive System Voltage subsystem produces the accumulator which provides the high voltage power to the car.
To gain an overview of the TSV subsystem, we recommend reading the Accumulator User Manual and Maintenance Manual. For improvements, refer to the errata and steps to competition ready documents.

There appears to be a bug with the PacMAN where it sets the coulomb count to 0 if a cell undervoltage is detected. This probably should not open the AIRs. See attached files for information (email) (data dump). Note the data is frozen after the red line. PCV23 (Voltage on Pack 2 Cell 3) drops beneath minimums.
