3.3.13 Auto boost configuration (Auto Boost Cfg)
From auto boost configuration menu the operator can set the following auto boost parameters
Enable/Disable autoboost: Autoboost will only start if this option is enabled
Auto boost threshold: The auto boost will only start if the discharge of the batteries (Ah) during mains failure or
battery test has been larger than this value. The auto boost threshold can be set from 0Ah to 1000 Ah. If the threshold is
set to 0, no boost will start.
In the LCD display, the message “AUTO BOOST” will tell the user that auto boost is in progress.

3.3.14 Battery Test Setup (Batt. Test Setup)
A battery test can be run to verify the quality of the batteries. In this menu option the criteria for battery test can be
configured.
The following options are possible using the Battery Test Setup
Interval test Date/Time:Start time for interval battery test (YYMMDD HHMM)
Test end voltage:When the system voltage reaches this level the test will be terminated (V/cell)
Max test duration: Maximum duration for the battery test (min)
Test interval: The period between interval tests
Test delay: Minimum time between a test/mains fail and the next interval test
In the LCD display, the message “Battery test” will tell the user that a battery test is in progress.
For Hierarchy of Menus, see page 12
3.3.15 Battery Test Start/Stop (Start/Stop Test)
Having defined the test parameters in the Battery Test Setup menu the following procedure is used to initiate a
test.
The test may be manually stopped at any time

3.3.16 Battery Charge current limitation (Charge Curr Lim)
In this menu the following parameters can be set:
Enable/Disable charge current limitation: The battery charge current will be limited if this function is enabled.
Maximum charge current: The output voltage is controlled in order to keep the current below this limit.
Temperature or regulated voltage mode must have been chosen for this function to work
