Viewing FN-DC Data
There are three main ways to view data recorded by the FN-DC:
○ LED Indicators (A and B): These indicate the approximate battery
SOC “at-a-glance”.
○ MATE3s System Display (beginning with C): This shows key
data such as the exact battery SOC and voltage. A full range of
detailed data can be viewed in various screens.
○ OPTICS RE (see pages 10-11): This allows for remote access to
most FN-DC data using a web browser.

FN-DC LED Indicators
The FN-DC indicates the battery bank’s SOC with a set
of 5 LED indicators. These are displayed in the breaker
panel opening where the unit is installed. See page 3.
All yellow and green LED indicators lit:
90-100% SOC
Green LED indicator blinking:
charge parameters met
Green LED indicator solid:
SOC above 90%
All yellow LED indicators lit:
80-89% SOC
Two yellow LED indicators lit:
70-79% SOC
One yellow LED indicator lit:
60-69% SOC
Red LED indicator solid:
50-59% SOC
Red LED indicator blinking:
Less than 50% SOC

In the MATE3s, the <Battery>
soft key D opens the FLEXnet DC
screen. This allows access to additional
menus with status and historical data.
