Description: If a cell connection to the device is detached, the capacitance on the node may maintain the voltage for some time. To detect this condition, the device can periodically enable a current source to VSS on each cell connection to drain the charge on the node. When a cell is detached, that node voltage is discharged, and an over-voltage or under-voltage event will be triggered on that cell or an adjacent cell differential measurement. The current source is enabled for the duration of an ADC measurement (3 ms by default) once per the interval defined by this parameter. A longer interval decreases the average current consumption at the cost of detection time. When using this feature, cell balancing should be considered as well since the current flows from the cell pin to VSS, resulting in a higher average current drawn from lower cells.

0 = Cell open-wire check is disabled.

All other values = Cell open-wire check current source is enabled briefly for each cell on this interval.
