REVBC-100-C1-US Revolectrix BUMP Control Unit Manual

When you remove the BumpTag from the Bump Zone, the battery details screen closes and the idle
Status screen will now display the current charger setup. This display will contain a list of batteries and
quantities.
Figure 6 - Charger Setup
The top line of the charger setup information gives a summary of how the charger channel will get
configured based on the batteries in the setup list. The chemistry and cell count must obviously be the
same for all batteries in the list (i.e., all batteries in the parallel charge), so that information is only
displayed once at the top of the list. Each different type of battery is then listed as a separate item in the
list. Bumping multiple batteries with the exact same Ratings will increment the battery count (i.e., “x1P).
Bumping a battery with different Ratings will cause a second battery item to appear in the list which
corresponds to that new battery type.
Touching the battery count button (“x1P”) lets you directly change the number of batteries of that type.
This is useful for times when you’re not concerned about tracking individual battery charge counts or
history and want a quick easy way to parallel charge multiple batteries of the same type without having to
bump every one of . You can bump a single BumpTag, touch the battery count button, and select 1 to 8
batteries of that same type.
Touching the battery item itself will open a popup action menu which provides more actions that can be
taken on that particular battery. The following operations can be selected :
Clear - removes this particular battery from the setup list
Add/Drop Favs - adds or removes this battery from Favorites (see “Favorites” for details)
NOTE: The charge counter value on the BumpTag isn’t actually
incremented when it is bumped. Once the 10% capacity threshold is
reached, the unique ID of that battery (or batteries) is cached to ensure
the charge counter gets properly incremented on the next bump. This
method works properly even when the battery is charged on multiple
chargers.
NOTE: Bumping a battery which is not compatible with the existing
setup for parallel charging will cause a warning screen to be shown and
the previous setup to be replaced with the new battery.
