I used the device alone with no computer connection. Its USB connector is only to upgrade the firmware.

The extra battery is based on Li-Ion cells Sanyo NCR18650GA 3500mAh - 10A, connected 88 Serial and 6 Parallel that is exactly the same number of cells in series as in the car battery pack. The 322 V was just the charging status of the extra battery and of the car battery when I connected them...

I am still connecting directly to the motor inverter but I only switch the extra battery on when the main battery is switched on. I am doing this manually but later I will add a relay that is controlled with the same signal as the main battery relay.

Yes, the unit can read error codes and clear them. It has also the "read data stream" function where I can see values from all the sensors in the car. About the stored information in car´s memory, at least I have seen data from the BMS like the actual Ah capacity of the battery.

GOOD NEWS! I managed to reset the error WITHOUT the help of the local dealer, thanks to this diagnostic tool : http://www.diagnostic-world.com/pages/mazda_code_readers_189127-z=563744&p=105904.cfm#content_item_105904 Now I don´t have to worry about producing more error codes as I can always...

The external battery was connected around one minute. I measured the HV connections and it is 0 V. I have disconnected the 12 V battery over night and it does not solve anything. Discharge resistor, is it the same as the precharge resistor or is it another?

Thank you. Do you know if he manage to solve the problem by repairing the precharge resistor?

I have, I will do, but first I wanted to check if there is any possibility to read this error code myself, specially because it might happen to me again in this project.

I am in Iceland. Yes it has Chademo charge port but I haven't try it. It is not easy to bring the car to the charging station :)

I am working on a project with I-Miev car, I have built 6 kWh removable battery to extend the range of the car. I connected the extra battery with 322 V direct to the motor inverter. The car at that moment was in "Ready mode" with car batteries exactly at 322 V. My plan was to charge the...
