Sub Menu 8 Calibration
Note: This menu is password protected. Adjustment should only be made in consultation with
Magellan Powertronics.
The chargers are factory calibrated and the calibration should not normally be changed.
Automatic calibration is available with the Charger Monitoring Software.
The following set points are used to calibrate the LCD metering functions and the charger
voltage control output. Follow the procedure given below to calibrate the metering using the
LCD and Keypad.
To calibrate each setting it is necessary to connect a calibrated meter in circuit to measure the
required meter function. The set point should then be adjusted by the front panel arrow keys
so the set point equals the external calibrated meter measurement. All set points, with the
exception of the Reference Voltage O/P Calibration set point, can be adjusted up or down by
the front panel arrow keys.
