Low Battery Disconnect (AUX Mode)
This mode disconnects “auxiliary” loads from the batteries in the event of low voltage. These
are separate from the usual loads. Auxiliary loads are controlled by the A
UX output, usually by
a larger relay. When the battery voltage falls below DISCONNECT VOLTS setting, A
UX loads
are disconnected. When it rises above RE-CONNECT VOLTS, they will be reconnected.
Any loads not controlled this way, such as an inverter, may continue discharging the battery.
