5.5 INITIAL SCREEN
5.5.1 General
The initial screen is the screen displayed if no actions are taken. Additionally, the display will
automatically return to this state if no button has been pushed within 1 hour.
At the top you can always see the present battery voltage and the total output current from the
rectifiers. The next row shows System OK if everything is working normally, or Alarm if there is an
alarm condition in progress.
Select the Menu action option and then press the OK button to enter the menu system.
5.5.2 Normal float charging condition
Normal float charging condition is specified with the text Float charging. The
present date and time are specified on the row underneath.
5.5.3 Other charging conditions
The alternative charging conditions are “Equalizing charging”, “Testlevel
Usink” and “Rectifier switched off”.
For equalizing charging the remaining time is also displayed. The exception
is at the beginning of an automatic equalizing charging cycle, where data for
calculating the charge time is missing.
The action field contains the Stop option for cancelling the current equalizing charging.
“Testlevel Usink” displays when testing with lowered voltage, e.g. battery circuit test.
“Rectifier switched off” displays when the rectifiers shut down via the digital input External
blocking.
5.5.4 Alarm
An alarm condition always starts with an alarm message that is awaiting
acknowledgment. This is described in more detail in section 5.16 later. As
soon as all the relevant alarms are acknowledged, the screen here to the side
appears. It shows how many alarms there are in the alarm queue. You can
use the “↓” key to start browsing through the alarms in the queue. The alarm
queue can store up to 20 alarms including unacknowledged alarms. The
alarms are sorted in time order with the most recent alarm first in the queue.
Note that in certain cases when acknowledging, it may appear as if the alarm cannot be
acknowledged. This is due instead to an alarm with an acknowledge demand having come and
gone several times. The result is that this is present in many places in the queue and thereby needs
to be acknowledged several times.
5.5.5 Set clock
When starting the monitoring unit following absence of power, e.g. following
commissioning or service, the clock must be set to the present date and time.
The Set clock action option will remain in the action field as long as this is
not done.
See section 5.10.5 for setting date and time.
