Setting Battery Capacity

The first time you use the Link 10, it assumes you have 200 amp-hour lead acid batteries. If your battery capacity is different you must change the declared battery capacity. Follow these instructions to declare a new capacity:

1)Press and hold the SET button for three seconds to enter SETUP (and Advanced Functions) menu. SEL appears in the display. Press SEL and notice that the green LED is on.

2)Press SELagain and note that the light comes on. Press again and now

the LED is on and 200 appears in the display. This is the default battery capacity.

3)Now press and hold the SET button to scroll through battery size options. The display will show 1 amp-hour increments from 20–40 amp hours of capac- ity, 5 amp-hour steps from 40–100 amp hours capacity and 20 amp-hour steps over 100 amp hours of capacity. If you continue to hold SET, after four incre- ments the display scrolls faster. When the value you want appears, release the SET button. If you overshoot your capacity you will have to scroll all the way to 1980 amp hours, after which the display will roll over and begin scrolling up starting from 10 amp hours. NOTE: Versions of the Link 10 prior to serial number 05000 increment only in 20 amp-hour steps from 20–1980 amp hours.

4)After 10 seconds the meter exits the Setup mode and the selected value is stored as the new battery capacity and the display returns to (Volts).

TIP: All SETUP and ADVANCED FUNCTIONS begin with the SET button. SETUP is normally done at installation. The SET button may be LOCKed to prevent unauthorized personnel from tampering with the SET functions. See "LOCK" on page 28.
