1 QUICK START GUIDE
Setup wizard:
This quick start guide assumes that the BMV-702 is being installed for the first
time, or that factory settings have been restored.
The factory settings are suitable for the average lead acid battery:flooded,
GEL or AGM.
The BMV will automatically detect the nominal voltage of the battery system
immediately after completion of the setup wizard (for details and limitations of
automatic nominal voltage detection, see section 3.8).Therefore the only
settings which need to be made are the battery capacity (BMV-700 and BMV-
700H), and the functionality of the auxiliary input (BMV-702).
Please install the BMV in accordance with the quick installation guide.
After inserting the fuse in the positive supply cable to the main battery, the
BMV will automatically start the setup wizard.
The setup wizard below must be completed before other settings can be
made.
Remarks:
a) In case of Li-ion batteries, several settings may have to be changed.
Please refer to section 6. The setup wizard below must be completed before
other settings can be made.
b) When using a shunt other than the one supplied with the BMV, please refer
to section 3.6. The setup wizard below must be completed before other
settings can be made.
