Beats me how you know you are getting it done if it doesn't show on the monitor. You LFP guys can sort that out.
Most BMS have active ballancing built in, if it is a cheep one you can buy an actyive balancer and put it on in adition to the BMS. so it ballances every time it charges. the BMS has a wire for each cell and compares the voltage of each cell and does the balancing. if you have a bluetooth BMS you will be able to see individual cell balancing. this get a little more complicated when the manufacture uses cylindrical cells as you are seing groups of batteries so they are not being ballanced individualy but rather by clusteres. say ~25 cells per cluseter to make up one 1/4 of the battery depending on cell voltage and such. its a much simplier process when you just use 4 prismatic cells to make a battery.
I didnt realylize there was 2 pages of other stuff after this when I responded to it.....
