Step 1: Setting ds2 and ds1 for parallel operation
The current settings (AC current limitation and charging current) are multiplied by the number of devices. However, the AC current
limitation setting when using a remote panel will always correspond to the value indicated on the panel and should not be multiplied by
the number of devices.
Example: 15kVA parallel system
- If an AC-in-1 current limitation of 20A is set on the master and the system consists of three devices, then the effective
system current limitation for AC-in-1 is equal to 3 x 20 = 60A (setting for generator power 60 x 230 = 13.8kVA).
- If a 30A panel is connected to the master, the system current limitation for AC-in-2 is adjustable to a maximum of 30A,
regardless of the number of devices.
- If the charging current on the master is set to 100% (120A for a Quattro 24/5000/120) and the system consists of three
devices, then the effective system charging current is equal to 3 x 120 = 360A.
The settings according to this example (15kVA parallel system) are as follows:
To store the settings after the required values have been set: press the 'Up' button of the master for 2 seconds (upper button to the
right of the DIP switches, see appendix A, position K). The overload and low-battery LEDs will flash to indicate acceptance of the
settings.
We recommend making a note of the settings, and filing this information in a safe place.
You can now re-use the DIP switches to apply the remaining settings (step 2).
