Battery profiling issue (nPM1300 EK)

[AntonZ]

Hi!

In order to get more accurate battery SOC measurements I need to provide a custom battery model to the app.
So, I had to use the nPM1300 EK + Fuel Gauge board to profile the battery. After almost 48 hours, I've seen the following message from the app:


Yet the *.json file ("profileSettings.json") and other data except *.inc file was generated successfully.
Moreover, I'm able to generate *.inc file from the app by clicking "Profile" > "Save Battery Model".

Unfortunately I couldn't find any description of such an error in the documentation and not sure if the generted battery model can be used (if it is correct).
Does it mean that the app just failed to create this file automatically?

nPM POwerUP version is v1.3.1

Thanks,
Anton

Hi Anton

I think it is not an error. Profiling discharge sequence has just finished and data processing has just started.

The model will be available once it processed all the cycles may be after 30- 45 minutes. 

You can also check the project folder, once its ready. 

If not, you may share the project folder here so that i can have a look and create the model for you.

Hi Tharaka,

Thanks for your reply. As said, I was able to generate the model after processing (*.inc file), so just had to make sure it can be used despite this message.

Did it this way after processing:


Thanks,

Yes thats the way to go.

I agree Caution Note in the GUI has to be updated as it can be bit misleading.
You can also write the Battery model to the host SoC and start evaluation rightaway.
