Agilent/Keysight SL1010A Digital I/O Module

The Agilent/Keysight SL1010A Scienlab BMS Environment is a modular platform designed for testing and development of Battery Management Systems (BMS). It emulates individual battery cells, modules, and packs, providing a flexible and expandable system for various stages of BMS development, from algorithm testing to end-product validation. The system integrates with hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) environments like Vector and dSpace, and can also connect to Keysight’s Test Automation Platform (TAP).
