Why not run your own wires to the battery terminals on the motor controller and then not have to deal with those enable pins?

That is what I did here, see my reply number 8.

Hello Don, this is an interesting idea. Does this mean the BMS is not involved during charging? Also the dash will not show information? BTW about choosing the PFC, I know that also the 3,3 kW TC charger is available well programmed at factory side fitting to Zeros profile. Otten in Germany use them for his cheap and easy system, no Can required.

This is documented under a different purpose on the unofficial manual:

Hello Brian the link you give shows the internal routing of an FX, isn't is? But it is not described what signal the P3/Wht port requires, if I want to use other than DeltaQ that did not provide an enable to the Anderson. May be it is TTL level? I'm looking for a factory programed 2kW charger that can replace two DeltaQ.
Thanks and regards from Austria

Hello I read a lot about how to work with external chargers others than DeltaQ, like the Elcon, but there is one question remaining: If I like to use a charger other than the QuiQ, that has no signal pin at the Anderson SBS75X, what shall I do with the Enable pin to allow the Zero to charge? How to wire? What signal does the Zero expect (voltage/current)? Is it possible to connect via resistor to B+? Or need 5V?I'm not sure because I found no real explanation, or I read over.
