Very Low Battery Warning: The Very Low Batte ry Warn ing UP/DN buttons alter the time value
(in minutes) available on the battery (for use) before the panel displays a very
low battery warning. This indicates a near-term panel shutdown.
• Range = 3 - 15, default = 5 min.
- This value can never exceed the Low Battery Warning value.
•When the NXT-BP battery (installed within the NXA-BASE/1 battery base)
reaches a point where it needs to be recalibrated.
- A recalibration pop-up screen appears to ask whether or not you choose
to recalibrate the battery at this time.
Battery Status fields: This section provides the ability to monitor the current battery charge level and
charge quality:
• The Battery One Charge Status bargraph indicates the power charge
available on the Slot 1 internal battery connection (bargraph range = 0 - 100).
• The Battery One Quality bargraph indicates the physical capacity (quality) of
the battery. Quality is the percentage of actual capacity vs. its rated capacity.
For optimal performance, a battery should be replaced when the quality
rating drops below 80%.
• The Base Version field indicates the firmware version being used by the
NXA-BASE/1 Battery Base connected to the NXT CV7 panel.
• The Battery Level Port field indicates the port being used to report the
charge status level back to the NetLinx Master on (set in TPD4).
• The Battery Level field indicates the level being used to report the charge
status level back to the NetLinx Master on (set in TPD4).
Battery Power Brightness
Limit:
The DISABLE/DISABLED button acts as a power save feature with two
available choices:
•Disable - activates the brightness limit set on the Modero panel and is used
to conserve battery power. Activating this feature causes the panel to
function at 80% of full brightness and overrides the Panel Brightness value
set on the Setup page. This extends the battery usage time.
•Disabled - (illuminated when selected) deactivates this power save feature
and makes the panel use the specified Panel Brightness level set on the
Setup page.

The term "quality" (in the context of a battery), refers to the current capacity relative to

the batteries’ rated capacity. For example, after constant use, a battery may be

operating at 75% of its rated capacity even though it might be fully charged. In this

case, the battery could be incorrectly reporting its’ information back to the battery

base and then consequently relating this information back to the Battery Base page.

A battery can be recalibrated using an optional NXT-CHG (battery charger).
