NCU Controller
The NCU controller provides power system control, rectifier control (including a charge control function),
metering functions, monitoring functions, and local/remote alarm functions. The controller also supports
rectifier temperature compensation if the system is equipped with a temperature probe(s). Temperature
probe(s) may also be designated to monitor ambient temperature and/or battery temperature. The controller
also provides data acquisition, system alarm management, and advanced battery and energy management.
The controller contains a color TFT display and keypad for local access. The controller provides an Ethernet
port and comes with comprehensive webpages for remote access. The controller has SNMP v3 capability for
remote system management. The controller supports software upgrade via its USB port. Refer to the NCU
controller instructions (UM1M830BNA) for more information.
NOTE!
In this system, the NCU Ethernet port is connected to a front panel touch screen for local access
to the NCU webpages. An IB4 (second Ethernet port board) is also furnished which provides a
connection point for a remote monitoring Ethernet connection.
SM-DUE
The SM-DUE is used to input external monitoring information to the NCU controller. The SM-DUE provides the
following monitoring inputs:
• Ten (10) input blocks with each providing the following monitoring inputs:
- One (1) Load Bus Voltage (0 VDC to 60 VDC) per input block
- One (1) Load Fuse Alarm (Bus- base of 0 VDC, >10 VDC alarm, <10 VDC normal) per input block
- One (1) Programmable Analog Input, can be set to accept one (1) of the following inputs per input
block:
10 mV DC to 50 mV DC Load Shunt (only load shunts are supported at this time)
General-Purpose Current Transducer
General-Purpose Voltage Transducer
1 uA/K Temperature Sensor
The SM-DUE also contains a +5 VDC power supply output for connection to external Hall devices.
The SM-DUE connects into the NCU CAN bus. Up to eight (8) SM-DUE units can be connected to an NCU.
