Variable Description Factory sett.* Range
Float voltage
This voltage must be set just below the lowest
float voltage of all system charging devices at
operating temperature. Lower this value by 0.1V if
your MasterShunt does not return to 100% after a
long period of charging. Float voltage is used to
determine if the battery is fully charged (refer to
section 13.4).

Reset setup will

This screen warns you for the possible
consequences of resetting the setup.
Reset setup
Reset the complete setup of the MasterShunt, this will reload all default factory settings.
Careful: resetting the setup voids your system warranty!
Alarm levels
Voltage pre low
To prevent the battery from becoming too deeply
discharged, a value above Voltage low can be set.
At Voltage pre low for instance a generator can be
started.

Voltage low
The low voltage set point marks the voltage
threshold of too low battery. If the battery voltage
drops below this value, the alarm function will be
activated after the Low delay, see below.

Battery pre low
Set the State Of Charge value below which the
alarm function Battery pre low will be triggered,
default 40%. Note: the Battery pre low level is
higher than Battery low, to prevent the Battery low
situation.

Battery low
Set the State Of Charge value below which the
alarm function Battery low will be triggered, 35 %
default.

Battery full
Set the State Of Charge value at which the alarm
function Battery full will be triggered, default
100%. It could be used to switch off a generator.
100% 30-100%
Low delay
The “alarm delay time” can be set to delay the
alarm function when the DC-voltage drops below
the Voltage low set point or the SOC drops below
the Battery low level. This delay prevents a false
alarm as a result of a temporary voltage drop,
after switching on heavy loads.
30 seconds 0-100 seconds
Voltage high
When the battery voltage rises above this level,
the alarm function will be triggered.
Wet, Gel, AGM:
15.0/30.0/60.0V,
Li-ion:
15.5/31.0/62.0V
13.0-18.0/
26.0-36.0/
52.0-72.0V.
High delay
The “alarm delay time” can be set to delay the
alarm function when the DC-voltage rises above
the Voltage high set point. As high voltage is
accompanied by a high risk the factory setting for
high delay is 0 seconds.
0 seconds 0-60 seconds
