ETS TR1-4 placed rectifier in standby mode presence signal
RIC Rectifier type unconfigured presence signal for rectifier
Rectifier
Manager
Serial rectifiers have no manual controls other than a Power
On / STDBY switch. The manual Voltage Adjust potentiometer and
Current Limit potentiometer have been replaced by the Rectifier
Manager. Through the configuration of the Rectifier Manager the
rectifier’s voltage and current limit are controlled to the desired values
by a serial data link between the rectifier and the controller. The
Rectifier Manager can be configured through the controller’s Front
Panel or via EasyView software by connection to the local port or
remotely by modem.
Should the data link between the controller and rectifier be lost, the
rectifier “remembers” its last communication with the controller and
maintains voltage and current limit as had been set. In this instance,
regulation voltage transfers from the battery bus to the rectifiers output
voltage
In EasyView follow the menu path: Main → Configure → Rectifier →
Rectifier Manager.
From the Front Panel press <Menu> to bring up the MAIN menu, move
the cursor to CONFIG and press <ENTER> to bring up the
CONFIGURATION menu, move the cursor to RECT MNGR and press
<ENTER> to bring up the RECTIFIER MANAGEMENT menu.
The following configurable parameters are presented
PLT V FLOAT Controls the plant voltage in the Float Mode.
PLT V BOOST Controls the plant voltage in the Boost (increase) or
BTP (decrease) Modes.
I LIMIT FLOAT Controls the rectifier current limit in the Float Mode.
Configuration is in the percentage of rectifier
capacity.
I LIMIT BOOSTControls the rectifier current limit in the Boost Mode.
Configuration is in the percentage of rectifier
capacity.
SHVSD FLOAT Controls the rectifier Internal high voltage shutdown
threshold in the Float Mode. Should be set higher
than the plant HV FLOAT.
