ZERO DC AMP READING

Zero DC Amps : OFF This setting is used to zero the current reading from the external current

[Set Parameters] shunt. See installation notes in Appendix III on page 28. Use the UP or DOWN keys to change the setting. Note: when this setting is set to ON, a zero DC amps is performed taking about 1 to 2 seconds, after which the display returns to OFF.

BATTERY CAPACITY

Capacity : 500AH This is the capacity of the batteries in ampere-hours at the system discharge

[Set Parameters] rate. For example, a solar powered system will generally use the C/100 (100 hour rate), but a diesel recharge system may use a discharge rate of C/20 (20 hour rate). Your system designer will advise you on this figure. Use the UP or DOWN keys to set your battery capacity.

CHARGE IN BATTERY

AH IN Batt : 445 This setting is used at setup to enter the initial charge in the battery in

[Set Parameters]

This setting is determined by the system design and the type and age of the batteries used. If the battery efficiency is unknown, then we suggest that you use the default setting of 95% initially, and adjust if the ampere-hours in the batteries differs from the readings.
