4.10.2.2 Standard Test – Termination Criteria
End Voltage (Volts per cell) : The battery test is stopped if the battery voltage drops to the specified End Voltage value.
This value should not be changed in the Standard Test.
Max. test duration (min.) : The battery test is stopped when the test timer reaches Max. Test Duration. Note: This
indicates that the battery test may be incorrect Battery condition will display Aborted.
4.10.2.3 Standard/Simplified test – Start Methods
• Manual - the user starts the Standard test manually
• Interval - automatically starts at a given date and time set by the user. Test interval can be set to 1-1000 days and
Test delay period can be set to 1-1000 days.
• Automatic - starts upon AC mains fail and system is running on battery. Will not start if manual test is already
running.
4.10.2.4 Standard/Simplified test – Interval Setup
Test interval (days) : The period of time between two automatic battery tests
Test delay period (days) : The number of days an automatic battery test is delayed from the last time that the mains was
disconnected. This is to avoid a battery test on previously discharged batteries.
Start time, Start Date : Date and time when the initial interval battery test shall start.
4.10.2.5 Functional description - Simplified Battery Test
Simplified battery test does not use a battery table to determine the battery quality and can only be started manually.
The Simplified Test differs from the Standard Test in that Battery quality = N/A when performing the Simplified Test,
and the termination criteria behaviour is as follows:
4.10.2.6 Simplified Test – Termination Criteria
End Voltage (Volts) : The battery test is stopped if the battery voltage drops to the specified End Voltage value (note
that End voltage is set as total battery voltage, rather than a volts-per-cell figure as in the Standard Test). Reports
Battery Alarm and test result will be overwritten by next test.
Test duration (min.): The battery test is stopped when the test timer reaches Test Duration. No Battery Alarm is
generated (Battery OK).
If the user aborts the test, any test result will be overwritten by next test.
4.10.2.7 Manual Test control
Start Test: Activates the battery test. The chosen test type will be started.
