Menu
This menu selection applies only to controllers used with serial interface
rectifiers, connected with bus wiring through the L-36 Rectifier
Interface Module and L-23, BJC3 Rectifier Interface Board. From the
CONFIGURATION menu select STC to bring up the SLOPE
THERMAL COMPENSATION menu. This menu screen allows you
to configure the various parameters for operation of the compensation of
plant voltage due battery temperature feature. Enabling STC allows
plant voltage to respectively decrease or increase dependent upon
increasing or decreasing battery temperature. The “Raise Voltage”
feature can be separately enabled. See Chapter 7 for additional
information and requirements on the application of this feature.
STC: The configuration of this field enables or disables Slope Thermal
Compensation feature. Use the <+> or <-> key to toggle between enable
or disable. Press <ENTER> to save the change.
LOW TEMP: The configuration of this field sets the temperature at
which the plant voltage will have raised 0.1 volts x the number of cells.
Valid range is 23° to 68° F or -5° to
20° C. Use the <+> or <-> key to adjust the temperature to the desired
level. Press <ENTER> to save the change.
NOM TEMP: The configuration of this field sets the temperature at
which the plant voltage is set to its nominal value. Compensation begins
at temperatures above or below this point. Valid range is 59° to 86° F or
15° to 30° C. Use the <+> or <-> key to adjust the temperature to the
desired level. Press <ENTER> to save the change.
Note: It is critical that the NOM TEMP value be adjusted from its
default value to 25°C or 77°F for all known types of batteries before
STC is enabled. Plant batteries will be undercharged if STC is
configured to reduce plant voltage starting at the 15°C (59°F)
default values for this field.
UP TEMP: The configuration of this field sets the temperature at which
the plant voltage will have decreased 0.1 volts x the number of cells.
Valid range is 86° to 122° F or 30° to 50° C. Use the <+> or <-> key to
