Function Menu
In the FUnc (Function) setup menu, the Battery Monitor can be adjusted to fit
your system. Parameters called Functions can be set according to your needs.
This menu can be accessed by following the sequence in “Changing Settings
from the Front Panel” on page 3–27.
The Function menu is divided into three types of settings: System Property
Settings (represented by F1), Main Battery Settings (represented by F2), and
Battery Monitor settings (represented by F3). The following settings are available.
System Property Settings
F1.0 Charger's float voltage. This value must be equal to your battery
charger’s float voltage. which is the last stage of the charging
process. In this stage the battery is considered full.
Default Range Step size
52.8 V 16.0 – 64.0 V 0.1 V
F1.1 Charger's float current. When the charge current is below this
percentage of the battery capacity (see Function F 2.0), the battery
will be considered as fully charged. Make sure this Function value is
always greater than the minimum current at which the charger
maintains the battery or stops charging.
Default Range Step size
2.0% 0.5 – 10.0% 0.5%
F1.2 Auto-sync time. This is the time the Auto-sync parameters F1.0 and
F1.1 must be met in order to consider the battery as fully charged.
Default Range Step size
240 sec. 5-300 sec. Variable
F1.3 Discharge floor. This is the reference point at which the battery
needs to be recharged. When the State-of-charge percentage falls
below this value the Charge battery indicator starts flashing while the
time remaining readout shows 0:00 and the State-of-charge bar is
empty.
Default Range Step size
50% 0.0 – 99.0% 1.0%
F1.4 Battery temperature. With this Function, the average battery
temperature can be manually adjusted. This value is used for SOC
calculation only. The Battery Monitor will only broadcast temperature
on Xanbus if there is a Battery Temperature Sensor connected.
Default Range Step size
+20°C -20 – +50°C 1.0%
F1.5 Time remaining averaging filter. Specifies the time window of the
moving averaging filter. There are three settings, where setting 0
gives the fastest Time remaining readout response and setting 2
gives the slowest. The best setting will depend on the type of battery
load and your personal preference. The setting represents the effect
of reducing battery capacity at higher discharge rates.
