I got confirmation that:
<quote>
BDSS have to be used with specific battery. Please use with Primary(=1b)
or Secondary(2b) as Battery ID (Bit9-8)
Bit 9-8: Battery ID
= 0: Any battery
= 1: Primary battery
= 2: Secondary battery
</quote>
It seems you can't use BDSS with all batteries.
I'll confirm on BICS what the limitations are, they didn't update on
that piece yet I'm afraid. Unfortunately I don't think I have any
systems with two batteries to test myself.
