BMS RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND METHOD

A battery management system (BMS) recognition system, comprising: a master BMS including a master light emitter, the master BMS being configured to flicker the master light emitter to transmit an operation mode shifting signal to a slave BMS when it is intended to shift an operation mode of the slave BMS; and a slave BMS including a slave light receiver configured to correspond to the master light emitter, the slave BMS being configured to: recognize the flickering of the master light emitter through the slave light receiver; and shift the operation mode thereof in response to the operation mode shifting signal.
