Menu Choices or Information Displayed
The Configure Battery menu lets you read (as a user) and change (installer-
only) settings associated with the battery system. The parameters that can be
set include battery size, temperature, and type. For more detailed information
about batteries, including types and sizes, read Appendix C: “Batteries”
starting on page 105. For information about charge cycles, see Appendix D:
“Battery Charging Reference” starting on page 119.
■ Battery Size
This is the capacity of the battery or battery bank in ampere-hours. The
PROsine will alter the charging rate based on battery bank size. Charging
at a rate that is too high for your batteries can damage or destroy them.
Select the appropriate value between 50 and 2000 Ah.
■ Default Batt Temp
Select a battery temperature that is closest to the average ambient
temperature in the location where the battery is installed. The choices are:
Cold
: 5°C (41°F)
Warm
: 20°C (68°F)
Hot
: 35°C (95°F)
When the battery temperature sensor is installed, this setting is ignored
and the actual battery temperature is used.
■ Battery Type
From the list of options available, select the type of battery(s) that you
have installed. See Appendix D: “Battery Charging Reference” starting
on page 119.
When you select a charging algorithm, the battery details listed below
(see “View / Change Battery Details:‚” on page 54) are automatically
given default settings. These default values are the most appropriate for
the selected battery type.
If you have a battery type that isn’t on the list, you can modify the
charging algorithm settings according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
(This requires you to be in Installer mode.)
WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion
Incorrect settings can damage or destroy your batteries. When making
any battery configuration settings, ensure that the values are correct
according to the battery manufacturer’s specifications. Settings should
be changed by qualified personnel only.
