Installation
If using a BTS, when the battery temperature drops below 77°F (25 °C), the regulation voltage setting automatically increases. When the temperature rises above 77°F (25 °C) the regulation battery voltage setting automatically decreases.
Manual Battery Temperature Compensation
If no Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) is installed and the batteries will be operating in very hot or very cold conditions, adjust the bulk and float settings to allow for the battery temperature.
The recommended adjustments can be made following Table
If significant seasonal variations are common, you will have to change the settings several times a year to prevent battery damage and ensure proper operation.
